My Project
I am so excited for the opportunity to obtain digital media equipment to take part in a meaningful student-led community service initiative. Last year, our school embarked on an anti-bullying campaign, and I had the privilege of overseeing the creation of a digital media project. The student-led skits were truly amazing and impactful, and we were able to share them with the school and the broader community. However, the audio quality was subpar, as we had to rely on my personal cellphone for the recordings. This made it challenging for the audience to fully engage with the students' important message.
This year, we would like to build on the success of the previous community service campaign and create an even more polished and impactful video.
The students have been working tirelessly to develop new skits and content that promote kindness and address the issue of bullying. By having access to proper digital media equipment, such as high-quality cameras and microphones, we can ensure that the students' voices are heard loud and clear, and their message resonates with the entire school community and beyond.
I believe this initiative will have a profound impact on our students, as well as the staff and families within our school and the surrounding neighborhood. The students are eager to take ownership of this project and lead the way in spreading a message of compassion and inclusion.
More than half of students from low‑income households
