Mrs. Houchin from Watertown WI is requesting technology through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

No A's or B'c just CD's

My students need a CD player for music class.

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

One of the schools I teach in is a small rural school. This school is made of combined grade classrooms. Our parents are very supportive of this school. It seems like one big family. The school is for grades kindergarten through 5th grade.

Our current CD player is working hit and miss. I have a yearly budget of $60. This money is used to put on a yearly spring musical. This does not leave any funds for a new cd player.

The new CD player will be used in all the music classes. We will listen, sing and move to the music. The CD player can also be used by the classroom teachers if they are in need.

This cd player will allow the students to show their talent. We have many talented children that thrive on music. There are also many children that just enjoy music. The cd player will allow them to polish their talent and enjoy the music of this world.
