Did you know...?
When you go to the Destiny icon on your computer desktop (or under Resources on the school web page) and search for materials, you are only searching as a guest with no access to professional resources or videos. Watch the video here and see how to log in and see everything! You should be able to log in with your log in for the computer...if it doesn't work, please let me know so I can fix it! (I will be showing you a lot of others things DESTINY can do for you to help find online resources as well-stay tuned)
