Through PBIS expectations, students earn Mustang Bucks for demonstrating positive behaviors such as responsibility, respect, and commitment. Rather than spending their bucks right away, many students are choosing to save them, learning valuable skills like goal-setting, patience, and making thoughtful choices as they work toward earning some truly exciting prizes.\r\n\r\nStudent reactions to receiving their prizes have been incredibly rewarding to witness. From smiles and excitement to proud explanations of how long they saved their Mustang Bucks, students are genuinely motivated and engaged in the PBIS process. Students enjoy shopping for school supplies, sensory tools, books, and STEM incentive items that support both learning and self-regulation. The Market has become more than a reward system; it is a space where students practice decision-making and take pride in earning items through positive behavior.Their excitement reinforces the idea that positive behavior is recognized and celebrated at Milam, and it highlights the impact of community support in helping our students grow socially, emotionally, and academically.","fullyFundedDate":1764733335939,"projectUrl":"project/spooktacular-rewards-for-the-mighty-must/9850432/","projectTitle":"Spooktacular Rewards for the Mighty Mustangs!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Steed","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8312991"},{"teacherId":10038977,"projectId":9368063,"letterContent":"As my students and I are building relationships and getting to know each other, I am finding out that a lot of them love reading and devour books like nothing!

That is what I believe. Students who don't love reading just haven't found the right one. With the variety of books in my library, that won't be true for long.\r\n\r\nThank you so much for your contribution and believing in my students enough to help them see the world in a different way and make connections with characters facing issues just like they do. Hopefully they'll not only love reading but learn a little resiliency too.","fullyFundedDate":1747864260574,"projectUrl":"project/a-new-library-a-fresh-start-from-the-gr/9368063/","projectTitle":"A New Library: a Fresh Start From the Ground Up","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Estrada","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10038977_orig.jpg?crop=2208,2208,x0,y279&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747699927879","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10038977"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_13081","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":920,"numTeachers":48,"percentFrplEligible":62,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":17,"percentWhite":33,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":32,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"19.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.4,"schoolId":13081,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Milam Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Milam Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/el-paso-independent-school-district/milam-elementary-school/13081"}
