We have 31 students stations, a teacher station, 2 servers with
battery back-up, internet filter system, and Smart Board (interactive
white board). Our Smart Board also includes a "slate" which may
be used to pass around to the students in the lab so they may interact
with the whiteboard. This will make it easier for the younger
students who cannot reach the board. Students have access to the
internet, Microsoft Office including Word, Excel, Power
Point, and Publisher. Wireless access is available in all of the
classrooms. We have Promethean Interactive Whiteboards in all of the
classrooms. All teachers have access to the Technology Lab.
Students must come to class with the supplies they have been
asked to bring. A folder designated for computers with some blank
loose leaf, pen/pencil, and a flash drive (grades 4 - 8). Flash
drives will be collected at the end of each class for safe keeping.
All students have been asked to clearly label their flash drives.
When students are given projects or are working on a project for
classes they will be permitted to bring their flash drives (grades 4 -
8) home. However, the teacher will need to check the flash drive for
viruses. Please do the same at home. We want to keep our lab
computers, our servers and your computers at home safe.
Students will have access to the internet. It will be used along
with teacher supervision and direction. We have an excellent filter
installed. Students will not be permitted to check email, social
networking sites, etc. The software for the filter is updated to
include new "dangerous" sites that pop up on the World Wide Web. We
take every precaution to keep your children safe. Please see the
computer user agreement signed in the beginning of the school year.
It is also located on the school web page forms section.
Students who do not agree to sign the Computer User Agreement
will not be permitted to use any school technology
