Dragon Tags started at Baden Academy in 2014. Started by Owen Rossi-Keen, This tag was meant to help the kindergartners, as they were unable to share with adults how they should travel home and where they lived. This was especially important when a parent would send in a note with an alternative way of getting home, as the child would usually not remember. With the Dragon Tag, teachers were able to change what the tag would say once scanned. Baden Academy has an RFID reader in their gym, with a TV to display the information. This was incredibly helpful, as dismissal was held in he gym every day. The Dragon Tag could access other information as well, including emergency contacts, homeroom teacher name, and the student's full name. When the kindergartners would see their names on the screen, they were very excited. It soon became less of something the kids would be forced to do, and more of something the kids wanted to do! Soon after, a Dragon Tag Programming Club was formed. There job was to tweek some of the programming in the Dragon Tag RFID system.
