Computer Lab Opens Monday, August 23.

 

St. Dominic Students:

The lab is loaded with new equipment this year.  We have 34 new Dell Computers with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2010. 

You’re going to love the new Dell Enhanced Multimedia Keyboards.  The keyboard features 8 pre-programmed Hot Keys, and features an arm rest. 

A new schedule is in place.  Third, fourth, and fifth grade students will come to the lab twice weekly.  Sixth through eighth will come as considered necessary by their subject teachers.  I think you will like the changes as there will be more time to learn the necessary skills to become proficient on the computer.

Competition will be another part of the program as it has been in the past.  Students can do a lot of work on their project work at home.
See you the week of the 23rd.
