Help me give my students noise cancelling headphones to help keep them focused and on task.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. McKee's classroom raised $175
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Everyone knows that school, classrooms and testing can create anxiety in special education students. With the way our school systems work, school and testing is a part of our world. My students suffer from anxiety, even when there is not a lot of pressure placed on them.
The effects of noise on performance and stress levels are well documented.
Benefits of noise cancelling headphones include silence, improved focus, and enhanced relaxation. I have a few pair of these headphone in class, and students who use them show great success during testing. I want to make each school year as pleasant as possible, even when testing and working. Our Special Education students really need these headphones. Please help our class!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
