The grand opening of Berea-Midpark Middle School's Titans Spirit Store, made possible through funding from Berea Kiwanis, GPD, and the Education Foundation, offers students more than Titans gear, snacks, and rewards. It provides a real-world setting where students can redeem their PBIS points and celebrate achievements while stepping into leadership roles.

Student leaders like Store Manager Brianna and Assistant Manager Davion are building essential leadership skills, embodying the Portrait of a Titan competency of Leader. Through managing inventory, assisting peers, and making decisions, they’re learning what it means to take initiative, communicate effectively, and lead by example in their school community.

Earning and redeeming PBIS points also empowers students to make positive choices and celebrate their achievements.
