Our Story

The ABBIT Society (A’s and B’s Because I Try) began as an elementary school honor roll program founded in 1986 by an educator who believed that students need motivation and encouragement to help them excel in the classroom. Since its start, ABBIT has been highly effective in motivating elementary-aged students to not only do their work but also to want to earn good grades by recognizing and rewarding them for their efforts.  ABBIT has been estimated to have motivated and recognized over 1,000,00 students. Schools that have used the ABBIT program have reported an increase in the A and B Honor Roll.  

 

Our Mission

The ABBIT Society is dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the academic achievements of elementary students. Through our honor roll and achievement programs, we motivate young learners, inspire a love for learning, and reward their hard work with meaningful recognition. Our mission is to ensure every student feels seen, valued, and encouraged to reach their fullest potential.
