A and A/B Honor roll is no one else's business except the child and the parents of that child. No one else in the school needs to know that, so in that sense you are right. We don't advocate the award assemblies where only certain children get recognized and other children are left sitting on the floor without any recognition of effort. Perhaps that child on that floor tried very hard but didn't quite get the best grades. Where is his effort recognized?

Presents are not the same as incentives. A present is something given without an expectation of someone doing something for it. An incentive is given with a result in mind. Two very different things.

Incentives may work in the short term, yes. If they work for your company, then for the time period that you are not offering an incentive, your employees may not be giving it their all until another reward program comes along.
