FLM Rider Bucks Incentive

Students earn Rider Bucks for positive behavior that is observed from the teachers and staff each day. They can either save their Rider Bucks or spend them on the Rider Cart every three weeks. This is a great incentive for promoting positive behaviors and helps students with financial literacy for skills related to spending and saving. Talk to your child about how they are using the Rider Bucks they've earned and encourage them to do their best to participate with this great incentive.
