Digital Imaging 1 students explored a short Nearpod lesson about the Pros and Cons of Daylight Saving Time. Applying what they learned, students created quick Social Media graphics, using Adobe Express, to share the "Set Your Clocks Ahead One Hour" reminder.
Daylight saving time starts at 2 a.m. Sunday, March 9.
If you are interested in representing your class as a Student Council Officer for the 2025-2026 school year, you must attend the mandatory meeting at Noon on Monday, March 10th in Mr. Waters' room.
