DHS Media Center April Newsletter
Resources & Information for everyone!
Greetings Dakota Community!
Scholars, educators, libraries, librarians, publishers, and producers of internet content everywhere are coming together to offer parents and students the very best in free educational resources during these uncertain and unprecedented times. I've browsed the free resources, and created free accounts for our students. Please take a look below for research, reading, supportive, and fun resources. Please feel free to e-mail me if you need help with log-ins, or if you have questions regarding any of the resources below. Be sure to check back in May, and June for updated newsletters.
Stay Healthy -
Ms. Gropppuso
