My Project

In our classroom, students often work independently on digital lessons, reflection assignments, and targeted programs such as science labs and credit recovery. Many of the students come to us from a variety of academic and behavioral backgrounds; it’s essential that they have access to tools that support focus and engagement. Headphones are a simple but powerful way to create a calm, individualized learning environment where students can tune out distractions and tune into their education.

This project will provide students with headphones to ensure that every student has access to the technology they need to succeed.

Whether they're watching a credit recovery video or completing a credit recovery assignment, headphones allow students to work quietly and confidently at their own pace. With your help, we can make sure every student has the opportunity to learn without barriers.
