Bill > SCR210

This concurrent resolution urges the Hawaii Department of Education to implement an innovative pilot program at Ewa Beach Elementary School that would provide ice cream as a dessert reward for students who maintain good attendance. The resolution recognizes that school attendance is critical for academic success and that positive reinforcement can be an effective strategy for encouraging student participation. By offering ice cream as an incentive, the program aims to boost student morale, increase engagement, and motivate students to attend school regularly. The Department of Education would be requested to monitor the pilot program's effectiveness and submit a comprehensive report to the Legislature before the 2027 Regular Session, detailing the program's outcomes and potential recommendations for future expansion or modification. The resolution would be officially transmitted to key educational officials, including the Superintendent of Education, the Board of Education Chairperson, and the Principal of Ewa Beach Elementary School, demonstrating a collaborative approach to improving student attendance through creative motivational strategies.
