These contributions have allowed the store to expand its inventory, offering a greater variety of rewards that appeal to a wider range of interests and needs. Additionally, the donations enabled the store to include items at different price points, ensuring all students have access to something meaningful as they earn points through positive behavior. This increased selection has inspired students to strive for good behavior consistently, knowing they have more options to work toward. As a result, students are more engaged in meeting behavioral expectations, leading to improved participation in school activities, stronger peer relationships, and a more cohesive and supportive school community overall. The impact of these donations extends beyond the store, creating a ripple effect that strengthens the overall school culture.","fullyFundedDate":1727462762457,"projectUrl":"project/positive-behavior-student-store/8577102/","projectTitle":"Positive Behavior Student Store","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Sonnentag","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9297932"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_96129","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":852,"numTeachers":46,"percentFrplEligible":27,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":69,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":21,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"18.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.4,"schoolId":96129,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mesa Middle School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Mesa Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/douglas-county-school-district-re-1/mesa-middle-school/96129"}
