The DPS Educational Technology Showcase will take place at the DPS Staff Development Center on Monday, March 8, 2010 from 5 to 6:30.  This event is an open house style showcase that gives DPS teachers and their students an opportunity to exhibit their hard work and effective educational technology projects to the Durham community.
