Technology Committee Mission Statement

Assumption Computer Program

The Assumption computer program is focused on several goals.  First, the students learn to become comfortable using computers.  This is accomplished through the use of a variety of programs that help improve academic skills in Math, English, Reading Comprehension and Spelling.  Second, students learn to type correctly, increasing in speed and accuracy throughout their grade school years.  Students progress to the point where they become proficient in word processing while also learning how to effectively utilize higher level programs including Microsoft Power Point and Excel.

Kindergarten students also get the opportunity to learn about and become comfortable with computers.  These students engage in programs that improve letter recognition, use of numbers, recognition of shapes, and use of a variety of colors.  The students learn how to operate a computer mouse while completing exciting drawing programs.

The Technology Program is under the guidance of the Technology Committee that consists of teachers, the principal, parents, and parishioners with technological skills and background.  This group meets several times a year to address the school’s present and future technology needs.
