On Thursday, our Eagle students jumped into their second Eagle Bucks Mock Auction Bid! They used their hard-earned Bucks to go after fun prizes like brand-new Beats headphones, snack baskets, wireless speakers, and gift cards.

The event rewarded their effort and also helped them grow important life skills like communication, confidence, quick decision-making, negotiation, and public speaking.

👏 Congratulations to our winners! We look forward to many more Eagle Buck auctions ahead. Parents, thank you for encouraging your students to stay focused and keep earning Bucks as they grow their leadership.
