HASTINGS, Neb. (AP) When the opportunity presented itself for Kailey Rayburn to have a voice amplification system, the Lincoln Elementary second-grade teacher didn’t think she was a priority.

So I said, ‘Sure. I’ll try it.’ My teaching partner (fellow Lincoln second-grade teacher Rochelle Andersen) had gotten one and said she loved it and said, ‘You really need to fight to be the next one.’ ”
