Celebrate Your Students Proudly
Your students’ actions are a testament to the positive change that can be achieved when we come together for a shared cause. Celebrate your students by printing and displaying their Certificates of Awesomeness and donation stars from the donation kit.
"On behalf of my 5th grade class, I want to thank you for running the Learning A-Z Star Donation Challenge. My students were motivated to not only help others in need, but voluntarily read as much as they could on Raz-Kids to earn more stars to donate. In the process of demonstrating their concern for others less fortunate, they became better readers. They are truly proud to receive recognition for their efforts."
- Maureen McMorrow 5th Grade Teacher Hicksville Public Schools Hicksville, NY
