Is a certificate for achievement a bribe/reward? If so, then why not do away with the assemblies that present certificates for A/B Honor Roll, No absences and so forth and let's not celebrate success of any kind. I believe that any program that encourages reading is beneficial. As far as comparing apples to oranges, sorry I don't see a difference. Incentive programs can be and are successful. You remind me of the child who is put into a room with all the expensive and newest toys and after an hour complains that there is nothing to play with as every thing is broken. I prefer to be the child who is placed in the room full of pony manure. After an hour this child is asked why he is so happy .... his response - With this much manure I know that there must be a pony in here somewhere!
