No More Broken Aux Cords!

Help me give my students wireless headphones. Our current headphones require aux cords and the cords get tangled and broken often.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kristi McMickell's classroom raised $346

This project is fully funded

My Project

My neurodiverse students utilize headphones for their required reading and math work on iPads, as well as access music for sensory breaks, but the headphones we currently use require aux cords that easily get tangled, chewed through, or simply worn out through repeated use.

Having headphones assigned to each iPad in my classroom would allow for the students to independently access their work more smoothly.

I feel like I have wasted enough of my budget on new aux cords to only have them break. These headphones with mic are the key.

Please help my students and I by donating to this project.
