Many of the educational programs that we use to individualize learning for the students are done using a Chromebook. With the economic status of our families, many of them cannot afford school supplies, including headphones for the computer programs. By being able to provide a pair of headphones for each student, they will be able to listen individually to the program. This will help them focus and not be distracted by the sound of another student’s lesson. We also need them for when the students take tests, so they can succeed in a quieter environment. The headphones will be cleaned and stored in the classroom at the end of each day.
