News to Share

We need your help as ambassadors for our school! Our parents are vital in spreading the word about all the great things happening at Evansville Day School. Each week, we will share an item of interest here, and we invite you to take a few seconds to share it through social media.
"Technology provides incredible opportunities for young people to learn, connect, create and collaborate in ways never before imagined. But with great power comes great responsibility, and kids need to be empowered to use technology safely, responsibly and effectively to avoid pitfalls."
