We have a thriving photography program but we need cameras! Where most schools are cutting the arts, we have wait lists for our photo classes. Unfortunately, we only have twelve cameras for one hundred fifty students. We are looking to get a full class set eventually so the students can all work at the same time on projects. Currently, students have to switch off using the cameras which slows down the process only allowing us to complete half the assignments in the year that we would be able to if we had a full class set. I'm requesting five Canon EOS Rebel T6 Digital SLR Camera kits which have cameras and accessories. We have been slowly building our set for years and we are asking for funding to add more cameras to our class set!
