Our students are in need of having their voices heard. With these microphones we can enhance student voice in our school community making students the leaders of events that create a positive difference. These events are centered around helping students become decision makers that will engage the needs of the school community. We currently have student led morning news through a virtual platform, student government and music events that promote student voice. During these events it is challenging to hear due to the nature of the acoustics in the auditorium and the technology used. With these microphones it can help project voices of the students that are speaking so that their voices can be heard clearly. This can aid in expanding events that will promote student led opportunities such as debates and professional development for other students. By donating to our project you will be creating opportunities for students to lead book talks, present important topics that concern racial justice and equality, debate about climate change and what can be done to solve it and promote stories of perseverance in school and at home. These microphones are a symbol of what it means to inspire voice in our school. It will help students understand the importance of sharing their thoughts and ideas. It will help build a community of learners and doers.
