Through these and other enhancements teachers have observed that students are more accountable for their learning, more motivated to learn, and more willing to demonstrate their learning with authentic measures. The inclusion of technology has broadened student learning experiences far beyond an isolated classroom computer. All classrooms are equipped with multiple computers that have CD ROM capacity, Internet accessibility, and are networked to an internal backbone. Scanners, digital cameras and video equipment are available for students to create multi-media presentations. All staff is highly committed to becoming technologically proficient to support our students for the future that awaits them.
