Students from Darlington in grades 3-12 participated in Darlington's 5th Annual Technology Competition, showcasing a wide variety of projects that highlighted their skills in animation, 3D design, video production, digital photography and everything in between. This year the entire competition was virtual. With this change, all our students were able to compete, even if they are currently learning from home.
First-place winners from each category will advance to the Northwest Georgia Regional Tech Competition in February, with region winners moving on to the Georgia Technology Competition in March. Both of these competitions will take place virtually, as well.
