My Project

In the IA School District, we are so proud of our theater students! They work so hard to put together top-notch performances from the Junior High level through graduation.

We would like to put together a shared road box of 12 wireless microphones and their related components.

Currently, the drama departments at each secondary building rent a large number of microphones annually to ensure that audience members can hear student performances. Having our own mics would save a lot of money and the new equipment would be shared between both secondary buildings benefitting a large number of students. Not only that, but the microphones we are looking to purchase are currently on sale at a great price.

We need your help. While the price for the microphones is reduced, the cost for this project is still large. With the money we save from your generous donations and from no longer needing to rent mics, we can invest in curriculum, training, and other production-related costs that will improve the quality of instruction and performance.

Thank you!

Dr. Rummel
