YA Communication System

Kristi Farver Oaks
Exec. V.P. Development

Dear Friend:

Yellowstone Academy (YA) is the fully accredited K-12 school located right on YBGR’s campus. All children who attend school at YA are special needs students, many of whom also have sensory issues.

YA’s current communication system has a bell and alarm that are quite loud and can be extremely disruptive to these children with sensory issues. As a result, YA is seeking funds for a new communication system that would be quieter and much less disruptive.

The proposed new system would provide:

  • quieter emergency notifications,
  • silent staff notifications,
  • increase coverage in all school areas,
  • improve efficiency of kids transferring to classes, and
  • decrease inappropriate interactions.

These benefits would greatly reduce anxiety for our school children and increase their capacity to learn and grow in a safer, calmer environment.

The total cost of the fully integrated school-wide communication system is $51,000.

With your help, we can better communicate with Yellowstone Academy students.  Thank you! 

Contact KRISTI FARVER OAKS, Executive Vice President of Development at 406-656-8772 or email kristi@yellowstonefoundation.org for more information.
