The spring 2018 Online Student Art Gallery is now live featuring art from the district’s elementary school students!
This gallery is a way to highlight the remarkable products of art education in the district. It’s a digital attempt at bringing the work of our student artists at all levels into your home – because art is created for others to take in.
The Dubuque Community School District has named new principals at Bryant Elementary School and Kennedy Elementary School for the 2018-2019 school year, pending School Board approval at its April 9 meeting.

Kennedy kids are using technology in the classroom in many different ways! Some classrooms are documenting their work in digital portfolios using Seesaw. Some are completing assignments using an iPad or laptop, and some are using augmented reality as a launch to a writing project. Check out some pics!
