My Project

I am starting this project to get headphones for students in our school. Due to Covid many of our students were set back on their math and reading skills. During math and reading block, time is set a side for students to use apps focusing on reading and math on their laptops. We are currently in need of headphones. The headphones will be used, so students can focus on the skills and not be distracted or a distraction with the many devices going at a time. We have been using the apps since the start of the school year and we are seeing drastic increases in students scores. We would like to continue using the apps without less distractions. Thank you!
