 From the district's A Technology Plan for Teaching and Learning in the 21st Century (pdf)

It is the district’s belief that the use of technology, as a tool, will improve teaching and learning. The use of technology in the classroom fosters a natural integration of curriculum, thus empowering students to take command of their learning. Technology accommodates a wide range of learning styles and levels the learning field for students. It fosters collaboration, cooperation, and is highly motivational for many learners.
