Thanks to your generous support, this mobile sound system has brought a new level of excitement and positivity to our Fridays. We kick off the mornings by playing music as students arrive, setting a cheerful tone for the day right from the moment they step onto campus. It's been amazing to see the smiles, hear the laughter, and feel the energy as music fills the air.\r\n\r\nThe speaker has also become a big part of our Fun Friday traditions. After morning announcements, we roll it into the hallways to play upbeat songs that get students and staff dancing, clapping, and celebrating the week's achievements together. And as the school day ends, we take the speaker outside to send everyone home with good vibes and great music. It's made a huge difference in our school culture, and we can't thank you enough for helping us bring joy, movement, and connection to our Fridays!","fullyFundedDate":1752586412956,"projectUrl":"project/rolling-into-rhythm-a-mobile-speaker-fo/9382299/","projectTitle":"Rolling Into Rhythm: a Mobile Speaker for Schoolwide Events!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gilmore","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3518573_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y304&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691857272226","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3518573"},{"teacherId":3518573,"projectId":8946393,"letterContent":"I am so grateful for your generous gift to my \"Empowering Students to Thrive\" project!
