This approach should make it liveable:
1. get the Home Ec classes to sew colorful fabric banners, use thin polyfill batting on some of them; have staff attach them hanging from the exposed steel ceiling joists via fabric tabs. Alternate a 2 or 3 ft banner with a space so that 50% of the length of each joist is covered.
2. find out whose daddy owns the local Heating/air conditioning contractor. Get them to supply some 4 ft by 8 ft by 1 or 2 inch compressed fiberglass panels at (or near) cost. Have the shop class cut these into 2 ft squares. Cover (Home EC again?) squares with fabric. Attach to the walls, covering 25% to 33% of the area from knee-level to 6-10 ft, depending on how much you can afford.
One of these projects alone won't do the trick, but even a limited amount of coverage of both will help. Your budget should cover if you can get the staff and kids to donate the labor.
Best of luck,
