Help me give my students better-quality cameras to record student weekly announcements! Since implementing the no cell phones policy this year, my broadcasting 8th-grade students have been using older tech to record their videos!

My Project
Like many other schools, many students and families have struggled since COVID. Attendance rates are low for some of our students. My district did a hybrid year in 20-21 where students attended in-person classes just 2 days a week, and 3 days online from home furthering our attendance challenges. My 8th graders develop, create, and produce weekly video announcements, called “Newsday Tuesday but on a Friday,” that are shown to students in our building of 700+. These video announcements are enjoyed by all who create them and by those who watch them. Students are informed and entertained, engaging them in the school culture and building community. We would love to have better-quality audio and video for students' announcements which is why I’m requesting these cameras. Thanks for any and all support with this project!
