The third annual Digital Learning Day was held on February 5th. This is a day when thousands of educators across the country pledge to try new ways of using digital learning in their classrooms. On this day we challenged our teachers to do something new with their students using technology. Here you will find pictures of our students participating in DLDay and some of their finished products.
