St. Mary's Catholic School
Welcome to Technology Class!
St. Mary’s is a leader in computer integrated education within
the Boise Catholic school community with a complete computer curriculum
for grades K-8.
The mission of our Technology Program is to create an educational
environment that is strengthened and supported by information and
communications technology. The dual goals of the program are to develop
student technology skills while at the same time integrating computers
into the K-8 classroom curriculum. These goals are not mutually
exclusive. Our philosophy is to view technology as educational tools to
be used creatively, responsibly, and collaboratively for teaching and
learning in order to solve problems and to access, analyze, present,
and communicate information.
Our technology classes are delivered to students through regularly
scheduled computer instruction in fully equipped and networked
Technology Lab as well as in individual classrooms. (Our
Technology Lab was recently updated and equipped thanks to a generous
grant from the E.L. Weigand Foundation.) All students receive
lessons in the Lab on a weekly basis, and further utilize their
classroom computers for class work and individualized computer software
instruction.
