My Project

We have been taking song requests from our students. We play them during their morning arrival as they are going to their lockers and heading to class! Our speaker was broken and we need a new one. We play the music for our entire hallway to get ready for their day! We would appreciate a replacement so very much. The children really look forward to it. We love getting them involved by giving us their song requests! We have seen many grumpy morning friends change into happy friends dancing with the teachers and other students!
