TECHNOLOGY

First Immanuel is committed to providing our students with the latest educational technology, and technology is incorporated into all facets of our students’ learning.

Every Child Has A Computer Device - 

• FILS has a one-to-one computer program. That means that every child in grades Kindergarten - 2nd has individual access to an iPad, all children in grades 3 - 8 have a Chromebook. The Early Childhood and classrooms have iPads in each room, to support instruction in those settings. Middle school students are able to take their Chromebook home with them, and they will own that FILS device when they graduate*. (*agreement to the school purchase program required)
• Our staff has been formally trained on how to use iPads and Chromebooks in a school setting, and they are eagerly opening a whole new world of learning possibilities to their students.

Smart Boards in Every Classroom - 

• Our Early Childhood - 8th grade classrooms are equipped with Smart Boards, which are basically wall-mounted touch-sensitive computers, to allow more interactive learning opportunities. Our teachers are trained to use the Smart Boards and software in ways that best enhance learning.

Computer Lab and Instruction - 

• Students in Kindergarten through grade 5 have formal computer training.  Each student learns appropriate use of the internet, keyboarding, and the most frequently used word processing and desktop publishing software programs.
