TeeJay Live Photography and Videography Love forAll Things TeeJay!! Upgrade!
Funded Mar 13, 2024Good morning this project was very meaningful for my student photographers and the school at large. As soon as we received our new R8 camera, we pressed it into service at a Girls Varsity softball game. The pictures came out bright and the beautiful colors were amazing to see. We would soon use this great camera for additional spring sports to include Boys Varsity Baseball, Boys Varsity Soccer, and Varsity Track. The R8 camera is also great at shooting video. It is one of TeeJay Live's goals to also capture meaningful video of not just sports, but also band performances, school plays, and school assemblies. TeeJay lives work can be seen online, on our website, as well as social media. Student athletes also enjoy liberal access to the pictures themselves, so that they may enjoy the memories long into the future.
We are particularly excited about the R8's modern capabilities to shoot in full manual as well as the various priority modes and allow our photographers to refine their skills. At one of our track meets, one of our photographers picked up some tips from an additional photographer who was onsite at the meet. He helped him learn about shutter priority mode where one can set the shutter speed to freeze fast athletic action, and the camera would take care of aperture and ISO settings automatically. They were excited about their results and wanting to go out again soon This camera is a blessing to TeeJay Live and the school. We are excited about using it during the upcoming school year!!”

Classroom Technology Gear Mania!
Funded Nov 20, 2017I wish to express my heartfelt thanks for helping me improve student engagement in my classroom. With these five tablets I can be sure to have enough devices for all students when we review material via Quizlet, or Kahoot. I will have digital "stations" for small groups of students to pursue different topics. Students will also be able to complete a variety of project based learning experiences as the Internet affords them a huge treasure trove of information. I will continue to hold my students to high expectations, and promise to deliver my students the best learning experience that I am able to. This made a huge difference with closing the technology gap in my classroom.”
With gratitude,
