Accessing Your Resources
Start With Clever
For many students, Clever should be the primary starting point for accessing school-approved learning platforms.
Students should use their DAS-provided account credentials when instructed by their teacher. Available applications may vary by grade level, class, and campus.
If a student cannot access a resource or does not see an expected application, families should contact the student’s teacher or campus for assistance.
Using Technology for Learning
More Than Screen Time
Digital resources at DAS are used to reinforce classroom instruction, provide targeted practice, support independent reading, and give students additional ways to explore academic content.
Online tools are most effective when used as part of a broader learning experience that includes direct instruction, hands-on activities, collaboration, reading, writing, and problem solving. The school’s broader academic approach emphasizes using supplemental technology alongside strong classroom instruction rather than relying on it alone.
