We have amazing students at my school who just need a second chance at getting their educational goals back on track. Many of my students love to rap, recite poetry, and some would even like to perform on a stage. However, this is very difficult with a non-functioning sound system.
Unfortunately, our speakers and mics just recently gave out completely.
This means we can not even make simple announcements in our cafeteria or put on performances for parents, the community, and peers. We are asking for a blue-tooth speaker and mics to use until we can raise larger funds for a system overhaul.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
