“The Califone® PA-916 is used as part of our school-wide positive behavior support program. During school-wide reinforcement assemblies, students can earn extra time engaging in fun activities. One of these activities is Wonderful Wednesday. Students earn extra recess where we use the PA system to play music and address large groups of students, recognizing their successes and achievements.” Bethany Mercado K-5 Admin Asst Principal Beachland Elementary School Vero Beach, FL
