• Technology

    Technology is key to the success of our students, and at St. Cajetan, we embrace this by  incorporating it into the learning curriculum and providing current and relevant tools for our students and teachers.  St. Cajetan has invested in a dedicated IT support staff, high-speed Internet, upgraded wi-fi throughout the school campus, and a skilled computer teacher, in addition to the tools listed below.

    Computer Class: 
     
    Students are immersed in tools like PowerPoint, Excel, Word, Google Classroom, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Sites. Students also focus on learning homerow typing as well as basic coding skills. 
     
    All classrooms are equipped with: 
    • A desktop computer for the teacher
    • Teacher laptop
    • A Teacher Chromebook
    • A Mimio Teach Bar or Smart Board projectors
    • 4 iPad minis

    Jr. High Students:

    Beginning in 2017 students in grades 6-8 will be participating in a 1:1 Chromebook initative. Every student in Jr. High will recieve a Chromebook at the start of the school year. Teachers are trainined in Google Classroom and Google Apps for Education and will be focusing on using the devices within the classroom. St. Cajetan has implemented a rent to own model, meaning students who rent devices begining in the 6th grade will own those devices when they graduate.
