Help the Ears of All Our Peers!

Help me give my students JustJamz In-Ear Headphones for classroom headphones and activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Hildenbrandt's classroom raised $179

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting a bulk set of in-ear headphones for students in my classroom. Students regularly use headphones and with that use, headphones often break, get lost, and don't work correctly.

Students depend upon the headphones on a daily basis, and having good quality headphones readily available would help students to be successful.

There are many programs that we use daily with headphones, such as i-Ready, Lexia, or BrainPOP. Students need them for assessments as well, such as the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments. A good quality set of headphones would greatly help and allow for consistency within the classroom.
