Today the EDA celebrated the end of the year with a slideshow of the year's events, dollar tree awards and some minute to win it games. Students and parents alike had a good time participating.

It is near the end of the year and that means field trips! Today the Elementary/Middle Digital Academy students in grades 2 through 7 visited our very own Hocking County Historical Society.

I'd like to thank Rebecca Miller for her support of the Logan Hocking School District and her dedication to nature. Digital Ac...

We want to give a huge shout out to Neil Hinton for coming to Central Elementary. He presented to our Elementary/Middle School Digital Academy today on the different types of energy, focusing on solar energy. Mr. Hinton brought with him different types of robotics that worked by air, solar and carbon. The students were permitted to try the various equipment. He left us with a solar powered turtle and car. Thank you Mr. Hinton for your time, knowledge and expertise!

The following day, Eric Sagasser from the Department of Natural Resources came to Central Elementary and talked with students about the life of amphibians. He discussed...

Our Digital students are becoming poets. Incorporated into our Studies Weekly, students will often do a little extra and complete the ELA assignments as well. This student went that extra mile and wrote a poem. Great job!

Students came to Central Elementary where the Elementary/Middle School Digital Academy is housed and we circulated through centers for our party. Students made crafts, played some games, read stories and ate goodies.
