Wireless Headphones for Autistic Support 2024
Carrie Savoia, Harding Elementary I just wanted to let you know how well the wireless headphones are working in my classroom! It is so great to not have to worry about the cords fraying and pulling apart from the connection point. They also help alleviate classroom distractions when students are working. I am so thankful for this opportunity!
