Amplify Our Voices: Empowering Student Engagement and Leadership Post-COVID

My Project

I love my students because they are resilient, compassionate, and full of potential. Despite the challenges brought on by COVID-19, they’ve shown incredible strength in adapting to new ways of learning while navigating the emotional toll of the pandemic. Every day, they inspire me with their determination to grow both academically and as individuals. My goal is to provide them with every opportunity to succeed and feel connected again—both inside and outside the classroom.

The speaker and microphone I’m requesting will make a significant difference in their learning.

The microphone will ensure that every student, even the quietest ones, can be heard clearly during class discussions, group activities, and presentations, building their confidence and encouraging full participation. The speaker will amplify lessons, making sure no one misses critical information, which is especially helpful for large group settings or outdoor learning experiences. Both tools will foster an environment where communication flows smoothly, enhancing student engagement, collaboration, and academic achievement.

Beyond the classroom, these resources will also support student activities and student government, helping my students lead events, assemblies, and meetings that bring our school community together. These tools will allow student leaders to amplify their voices and create a sense of unity—something they truly need after feeling isolated during remote learning.

What makes my students special is their willingness to push forward, their ability to bounce back from adversity, and their commitment to helping each other. They are eager to grow, lead, and make a difference, and I want to give them the resources they need to shine. This project will empower them to not only excel academically but also reconnect as a community and develop skills that will carry them far beyond the classroom.
