  2. Technology In The Classroom The use of technology in the classroom has greatly enhanced our literacy program. We use programs through student computers, SmartBoards, and iPads. Our online programs foster a school and home connection. Independence is fostered through digital literacy as students can learn at different levels and access varying degrees of assistance. Students also access multiple learning styles when using technology. Digital literacy encompasses reading fluency, reading comprehension, spelling, grammar, punctuation, creative writing, and cross-curricular learning. Students benefit from online learning andebooksas it integrates modern tools and digital resources. The use of digital literacy programs promotes enjoyment of reading and creativity and leads to great confidence in our students.

We intend to continue being green by no longer printing the Highlander (our school newspaper). Instead, our intermediate students are developing a website to publish the eHighlander. This interactive “newspaper” will combine the cumulative skills taught in our language arts, computers and visual arts program.
