Your child’s EL3 account is an online portfolio and contains a history of their EL3 participation and accomplishments that they earn over time. As a District 65 student, your child can sign into EL3 using the username and password they use for school. Each child must have their own account.
We are working with all of Evanston’s youth organizations to establish a complete online directory of programs and learning opportunities. Along with the more than 150 online challenges available, EL3 is the place to be. You can search for activities by category or keyword.

Colleges and businesses are using digital badges to acknowledge learning. Read More
