News Station Organization

Help me give my students a dry erase board, markers, write-on magnets, and other supplies to organize our stories for our school broadcast.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Batdorf's classroom raised $262

My Project

At our middle school, we recognize the importance of giving every student a voice. Next year, we will begin a new student news crew to help to tell the stories that matter the most to them. To ensure that we don't miss any important stories, we want to create a planning board. Our planning board will allow us to write down story ideas, track who is working on the story, and monitor the story's progress.

Our students have important stories to tell and they want to tell them.

With your help, my curious and persistent students can organize their stories and share their important messages with the world.
