Technology

At Franklin Road Academy, technology training starts in pre-kindergarten and continues in age-appropriate steps through grade 12. A pre-kindergarten student might start by playing a game of colors on an Ipod Touch, move to a desktop computer to learn keyboarding and multimedia presentations in 4^th grade, program robots using netbooks in 5^th grade, carry a tablet PC in 7^th grade, and by senior year be well-versed in the use of digital textbooks, online resources, and a variety of business and technical software.

Classes in every subject area and grade level offer opportunities to practice technology skills in a safe environment with appropriate limits and supervision. Teachers utilize technology in the classroom in ways that are reasonable and relevant to enrich student learning.
