Calverton School Educational Technology Plan

Technology at Calverton School supports the school's primary mission: to prepare students for college and lifelong learning and to guide students to become responsible and informed citizens.

Technology is used throughout the curriculum. Students employ computer tools and techniques for personal productivity and learning. Beginning in early elementary, they move along a spectrum of increasing mastery and comfort with technology.

The technology curriculum is also designed to support the ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students, NETS (http://www.iste.org).
