Technology

Our Lady of Mercy Regional Catholic School has adopted the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) publication, as its standard. This publication, National Education Technology Standards for Students – Connecting Curriculum and Technology. The ISTE web site is www.ISTE.org. The skills presented were derived from Microsoft© MOUS (Microsoft Office User Specialist) certification requirements and ISTE standards.

We offer a 1:1 Device Program for all students. Students in PreK4-2 have iPads and 3-8 have Chromebooks. Each classroom is fitted with 75 inch SMART Board displays, in addition to campus-wide Wi-Fi.  We are full participants in Google Apps for Education (GAFE) and Google Classroom. (Google Classroom is mission control, designed with teachers and students to connect the class, track their progress, and achieve more together.)
