Ms. Lindsay Crater’s fourth-grade class at Idyllwild School show off their computer headsets, which the Idyllwild Rotary Club donated. The club previously gave headsets to the entire student body but met the need for additional ones this year. Pictured with the class are Crater (left) and Rotary representatives Roland Gaebert, Earl Parker and John Graham. Graham, a retired teacher, was instrumental in arranging the headsets’ donation. The headsets will allow each student to get full use out of a computer without disturbing others. Photo by Tom Kluzak
