Score a Goal in the Classroom is an incentive-based program to motivate K-12 students. Participating educators create specific goals for their students, and when the students rise to these challenges, they are rewarded. 

Supporters in the business community provide awards and incentives, commonly in the form of tickets to sports and entertainment venues. Hundreds of thousands of Texas students have raised their grades and received prizes since the program's creation. 

In 2016, Score a Goal in the Classroom hosted its first reading festival in the Eagle Mountain-Saginaw Independent School District. Each elementary school student in the area was invited to a nearby high school for reading and fun with older students. Young learners read with their older peers, and the elementary-aged participants were rewarded with age-appropriate books and other prizes, courtesy of Score a Goal in the Classroom.
