Dear Staci, I just had my moldy old carpet replaced with tile in a library with stone walls and a two-story-high wooden ceiling. I bought a yacker tracker for the kids to use to judge the appropriate noise level. We were in the hall the first four weeks of schools - so practiced with the tracker in the hall - even classes passing by used it to judge noise level. Works well with elementary - don't know how middlers would be with it. I had one parent who wanted to buy one for home! Joy Joy B.
