My Students

In the ever-evolving world of technology, efforts to maintain a current, relevant, and professional learning environment are challenging and costly. With shrinking school budgets, it creates an additional challenge to provide students with the correct materials.

These high school students are top-notch members of their school community, giving up their time on a volunteer basis for the betterment of their peers.

The school is in a suburb of a major city, and other schools in the same district are plagued by problems we are not. This makes it challenging for us to get the funding we need to operate "the right way."

My Project

These highly creative and driven individuals bring ideas to the table time and again to make our morning announcements grow and evolve into a much bigger and better production. However, we are often limited by equipment and funding. By switching to microphones that don't require hands, we can start to make our presentation more high-tech and give the students the ability to use their hands during broadcast.

This is such a minimal cost to make this happen, but it is a cost that is beyond the budget of our program.

With just a little effort on your part, you will create immense opportunity for these students.
