TECHNOLOGY TOOLS - Engaging students and amplifying learning
Today's students are acquiring knowledge for careers that may not yet exist. To best prepare them for the future, our district has been integrating technology into the curriculum and encouraging student-led learning. Last year, the district introduced Chromebooks and implemented Google Classroom. This year, Mrs. Christine Talbot, the district's Technology Coordinator, has held extensive training with our teachers on a variety of technology tools they are already adding to the school day.
