Technology
Technology plays an integral part in the teaching/learning process at Saint John's School. The use of technology is designed to prepare students as they collaborate, research, construct and discover while at the same time allowing teachers to individualize their teaching strategies, teach digital citizenship and differentiate learning. Through the use of the latest technology, e-books, and the school-wide wireless network, students have access to unlimited resources to enhance their learning experience. Starting in seventh grade, all students are required to have a laptop and bring it to school on a daily basis.
The electronic device required by the school is to be used for educational purposes. Therefore, an expensive multimedia/audiovisual equipment is not necessary. Saint John's School recommends a Windows 10 Pro device.
