All Lower School students receive instruction becoming computer
literate by learning to use age-appropriate software.
In
the primary
grades, the emphasis is on using interactive software
to reinforce math, language arts and social study skills.
Students are
also introduced to painting and word processing programs.
Beginning
in fourth grade, students receive instruction in keyboarding.
Third, fourth and fifth grade students broaden
their use of
productivity tools software to publish their writing,
conduct research, construct spreadsheets and graphs, and
to develop
multimedia presentations.
Access to the Internet enables
our students to communicate with experts and other
students around
the world, to participate in and contribute to scientific
research projects, and to access educational resources.
The Lower School Computer Lab is on the
first floor of the Community Resource Center. The lab has
eighteen e-Macs and
two Mac G4's. There is an LCD projector, a scanner and a
color laser printer. Four digital cameras are available
to the lower
School students and faculty.
