School History:

Findlay Digital Academy (FDA) was sponsored by Findlay City Schools and opened it doors to active students on January 18, 2005. Since then we have gone from a student enrollment of 30 to as much as 150 students. Started in one room in Findlay High School, the academy has moved twice ande is now housed in 2000 square feet of space in a local office building.

In our first year, FDA graduated 3 students; in 2010-2011, 45 students earned their diplomas.
