My Project

Our students have been working hard on the show, “A Year with Frog and Toad.” Since it is our school's first play and a musical, our school does not have the sound equipment necessary. Our stage is also in the cafeteria, where there are many loud noises from all of the refrigerators.

Microphones will be essential for allowing the audience to hear our young singers and actors.

Headset microphones will allow the students to move around and dance freely, while still being heard. 100-foot microphone cables will help connect our borrowed choir mics all the way across the cafeteria to the soundboard.

Our 1st - 6th-grade students have worked harder on this show than I have ever seen them work, and the necessary sound equipment will ensure that their proud parents, teachers, and classmates will be able to hear how wonderful they sound.
