Help me give my students reusable Kensington Hi-Fi Headsets for quiet focused remediation.

Our students are all male in a 75% free and reduced lunch environment. In many cases, they live in low income situations but they are energetic, either to learn (particularly History and Math). They are fascinated by world culture and life outside their city block. They are in 6th and 8th grades and they see limited futures but we work to instill in them the desire for greatness and the path it takes to get there. Our work continues and we are here for it.
Many of our students are in remediation programs and have accommodations.
Because of their chaotic lives, some have difficulty quietly focusing to read.
Imagine a home environment where there is always the noise of loud adults, street traffic, blaring televisions. It becomes difficult for them to be still and quiet.
These headsets will allow them to read quietly with soft music, have audible books read to them so they can focus and attend to the content. Quiet reading is so important and many of them will never have quiet time at home. They only get it in the classroom. Thank you kindly. Mrs. Sylvia Pace
