LIMA, OH (WLIO) - Lima City Schools' Heritage Elementary is kicking off a new incentive for students to get to school on time.
They are called "HOT" tickets. Students can get them for being "Here On Time" at school as a reward. The school district introduced the "Every Day On Time" program last year and has seen an improvement in on-time attendance. The tickets are a reward for the students' efforts.
"So the kids earn the tickets for every day they're here on time. They get a ticket put into a drawing and each grade level will get so many tickets that get drawn out for those kids to earn some hot chips," explained Scott Spriggs, assistant principal at Heritage Elementary School.
"Just getting our name out there and helping with the community. I have children myself so I'm all for helping local schools and communities," said Ashely Green, Cory Frazer State Farms Insurance Agency.
The "HOT" tickets will be entered into a drawing for "HOT" chips that are being supplied by State Farm Insurance Agent Corey Frazer.
