The use of computers to facilitate learning is something St. John Neumann has valued for many years. As a result, we have a stand alone Technology Committee that reports directly to the School Board and whose leadership has provided the following:
Each homeroom (K-8) is equipped with an interactive whiteboard that is used daily.
Each homeroom has desktop computers for students to use. This allows students the opportunity to do research on the internet, complete Accelerated Reader quizzes, play educational games, and complete a variety of instructor-led assignments. Additionally, the upper level science classes use tablets when the students gather data in the outdoor classroom and greenhouse.
All students in grades 5 through 8 are assigned their own laptop.
Classes are assigned departmental time for special instruction in the 30-seat Computer Lab. There, children learn specific technology skills including typing, letter writing, spreadsheets, and PowerPoint. Additionally, when the computer lab is not scheduled for computer class, teachers will often utilize the lab to assist in other subjects.
