Students manage their own checking accounts for their Panther Purse. Each day they have opportunities to earn (pretend) money for the following:

• Completing Homework + $20.00 only if all assignments are complete
• Prompt Attendance / Participation in Class + $5.00 increments
• Classroom Compliments + $10.00
• School-Wide Behavior (varies)
• Tickets ($5.00)

Students may also pay fines for the following:

• Missing Homework - $20.00 per assignment
• Inappropriate Behavior (in-class or out of class) - $5.00 increments
• Bathroom (outside of the designated time) -$10.00
• Being Unprepared or Needing Supplies - $5.00

Students must then use money from their accounts to be involved in activities that are viewed as privileges such as recess, assemblies, fourth grade send-off, and monthly rewards.
