 Computer Technology Mission

The computer technology grades  four through eight curriculum is  aligned with Connecticut state and  national goals. Reflecting the  school's mission statement, its  purpose is to use current  technologies to support learning and  to provide a means for each student  to find academic success. The  curriculum encourages the  development of computer and  technology skills which are now  considered life skills.  The Computer Technology  Department of J.F.K. Middle School  consists of two teachers who are responsible for the directed exploratory curriculum  (DEC) for all J.F.K. students, the computer instruction of staff at J.F.K., the basic  maintenance of the computer hardware located in the building, the evaluation and  purchase of software, and the development of the supplemental exploratory  curriculum (SEC) in conjunction with J.F.K. teachers. In addition, the Computer  Technology staff is called upon to develop multimedia productions covering a variety  of school activities and topics as well as graphic art projects to suit the needs of the  school community.
