=Camera Kits via FedEx:= If your DB facilitator is not able to lend you a camera kit to use at your school, contact Jan Welsh (jan.welsh@state.mn.us) and she can make arrangements to ship a kit to your school. Trained Digital Bridge teachers may check out a kit for one 2-week block per school year - extra time will be included to allow for shipping to and from the school.
