My Project

I am a teacher for high school students with moderate to severe disabilities. We are at a co-located building in New York City, which means we have multiple schools housed within the same building. Our site currently serves 112 students within 8 homerooms. We currently need to borrow equipment from other schools or sites to be able to coordinate events.

Help provide my school site with a loud bluetooth speaker and PA system to be used at school parties, events, and shows.

The speaker will also be utilized at the Back to School Welcome Party, Holiday parties and shows, field day, PE classes, basketball practice, and other student activities. Students will be able to select music via bluetooth to listen to to promote socialization and the PA portion will be used so all students can hear announcements at all times.
