The Digital and Learning Resources team believes in the opportunity to teach our students early on the importance of exercising their civil duties at the polls. That is why, every four years, our department holds the EPISD Student Mock Elections, where students in grades 1-12 can cast a mock virtual vote to choose a presidential candidate at the elementary level and also congressional candidates at the middle school and high school levels.

Every year, for the past 18 years, the Digital and Learning Resources team has hosted the EPISD Student Digital Film Festival, inviting students from all corners of our region to create digital films and submit them to our festival. Then, in the spring, we host an awards gala to showcase their fantastic work and present the awards to the winners. Click the link above to learn more about the festival.

The Digital and Learning Resources team provides students and teachers, starting with middle schools, with drone technologies to support lesson enrichment, engaging experiences, and technical skills to prepare them for future careers in spatial and aviation fields.
