I think that you meant the GOS in your post because the SHG doesn’t have a whoop tone on it but the GOS looks like the SHG and it does have a whoop tone on it so you probably got them mixed up by mistake. It’s no big deal. I just wanted to point it out. Anyway, back to the Oakwood City school district, which seems to love using Faraday-rebranded 4041s and 4051s. LOL

This is their middle school: ID code 26765. Haverford middle school is the school that is going to be done next.
