Digital Citizenship and Creating Empathy

The goal is to bring awareness to middle school students that lack empathy(feelings) in a world that has very few real lessons on how to conduct oneself online.

 The campus will be learning several applications that are provided in our Verizon Grant.

Teachers will also be utilizing the Blended Learning Flip classroom and Student Ownership.
