ST. AUGUSTINE, FLA--Digital learning is quickly becoming the wave of the future for education.  Instead of carrying around big textbooks, for students at Palencia Elementary School, all of their textbooks are on iPads and their teachers use Smartboards instead of chalkboards.

To celebrate National Digital Learning Day with other schools in the country, students at Palencia Elementary will be doing a digital scavenger hunt across the school, Skyping other classes in St. Johns County and parents can get involved too.  They can log in and observe via a web cam some of their children's classes.

The principal Don Campbell says after the new school was built, they had money set aside to buy new text books, but instead of buying new books the faculty and staff thought it would be a better idea to buy iPads and download all the textbooks onto them.  

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- "He took me to a dock down the way from our house, on a lake," 22-year-old Brittany Thomas reminisces.

"He had wine in hand and roses. We watched a meteor shower and shooting starts, but I don't think he planned that," she laughs.

25-year-old Trey Burnett proposed to Brittany back in March.

The couple knew the wedding would be at the same church in which Brittany's parents married 25 years ago.

Then the planning began, pulling the bride-to-be back down from cloud-9.

"It goes back and forth," Brittany sighs. "there are times it gets very hectic when we try to figure out all the money situation."

Brittany explains that she and her fiance' are on a tight budget, so creativity when planning for the big day has been key.

She was more than willing to share some of her wedding planning strategies.

"We are doing all of the planning ourselves," Brittany tells us.

They may be going fast, but the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum still has tickets for its Legado gala event on March 23, and we’d love for you to come!

Not only will the Legado gala have a Spanish guitar, as well as a jazz Latino musical performance, it will also include a Malaga, Spain music exhibit. The exhibit will feature authentic Spanish music with a variety of genuine instruments, all of which can be played by guests of the gala. Adding to the festivities, the Lighthouse Archaeology Maritime Society will be performing various scenes from its successful Discover First America! presentation, The Madness of King George.
