The APS Digital Learning department is dedicated to providing rich and relevant learning opportunities for students, teachers, parents, and the wider APS Community. We believe that information and technology are powerful tools for transforming learning. They can help affirm and advance relationships between educators and students, reinvent our approaches to learning and collaboration, shrink long-standing equity and accessibility gaps, and adapt learning experiences to meet the needs of all learners.

The Digital Learning department's mission is to promote critical thinking, creativity, communication, computational thinking, collaboration, & information literacy through the purposeful usage of ed-tech tools, print & digital texts, online databases, digital literacy, & creative computing curriculum aligned to ISTE, AASL and MA DLCS standards. The DLL program will cultivate life-long, culturally competent, metaliterate learners who will become proficient in multiple literacies, including information, media, digital, and print literacy.  Our students will be given opportunities that will empower them to become creative knowledge builders and producers of new ideas while continuously developing as engaged global citizens. The APS DLL team will accomplish this mission through support of rigorous instruction, implementation of high-quality professional development for teachers and administrators, community outreach, and the development of reliable instructional technology systems to support district goals.
