VisionTo prepare learners to
meet the demands brought on by our rapidly changing
global community.
To meet goal…
teachers need to continually seek out and
embed innovative strategies, emerging
technologies and a variety of information sources
into our learning.
To meet goal..
learners need to be able to independently
learn, unlearn, and relearn in order to be
successful in the future and NOW!!
The key is the total integration
into relevant and meaningful
curricular contexts.
Technology can empower learners to
take command of their learning,
inspire their learning and motivate them to be lifelong learners.
