Technology

Basic computer literacy and knowledge begin in Kindergarten. Computer skills are developed as the students progress to eighth grade. Students are introduced to the Windows operating environment through an exploration of various educational software packages. Computer class provides an opportunity for the students to learn keyboarding and word processing, and to apply the learned skills to project work. Our Computer lab is Internet accessible allowing our students to link classroom study with the tools of current technology. All students in grades 5 through 8 and their parents are required to sign an Acceptable Use Policy, which outlines the rules and regulations governing the use of computers at St. Thomas the Apostle School.
