The success of the Math, Science and Technology Center led to the development of the Lower School Technology Center. Each of the rooms in the center is equipped with smart boards and overhead projectors that are connected not only to a document camera, but also to computers, offering the latest in technology and hands-on learning opportunities to our youngest students.
The Science Lab has ample space for ongoing experiments and activities and is equipped with sinks and garden windows so that the classes can work on horticulture experiments and receive the advantage of natural lighting. Everything is convenient and available for the students to enjoy their science activities.
The Computer Lab has nine computer carts facing the teacher. Each computer contains software that aid in the development of students' computer skills and provides review of and enhancement to classroom subjects. The Computer Lab also has laptop computers available.
