Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our school is a vibrant place of learning and celebration, but we lack the tools to make our voices heard in large gatherings. This was most evident recently during our winter program. Despite excellent performances, a running complaint from families was the inability to clearly hear our student emcees.

This project will provide our school with multiple wireless bluetooth microphones, ensuring every voice is heard, every song resonates, and every moment is celebrated.

We need reliable wireless bluetooth microphones for school because they make sure that everyone can hear clearly, assemblies run smoothly, and students stay engaged. When the microphone is reliable, teachers and students don’t have to shout, saving their voice. Students and families in the back of the assembly will hear just as well as those in front. Tech problems (like cutting out, static, or dropped connections) are avoided, so there’s no interruption to presentations. They’re especially helpful for large multipurpose rooms, assemblies, events, and performances.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
