  • Digital Arts and Earth and Energy Science Essentials is a mandatory introduction to the Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences and is delivered in one online cross-curricular environment with a significant focus toward E3. The Earth and Energy Science Essentials curriculum is a 9th grade introduction course that is grounded in science fundamentals and aligned to the CT Science Standards. E3 is supported by a digital arts curriculum that is taught in a separate technology class and challenges students to complete digital art projects at the end of each E3 unit before completing a final challenge in the second semester.
