We are excited about the technologies MHS students utilize every day. In the last few years, thanks to the support of our community, we have been able to provide the following to our students:
Chromebooks for every student
Upgraded thin client labs, Apple iMac labs with Adobe Suite software, iPads, laptops, software and online services to integrate into the curriculum and help prepare our students for their future.
Upgrades to all network infrastructure; including wireless access points, cabling and switches.
3D printers, virtual & augmented reality kits, Spheros and other programmable robots, video systems with green screens, computers with the latest video, audio and graphics software, a drone with a video recorder, a poster printer, Cricut Cutter, a heat press, and fire tablets.
By blending our traditional educational standards with these 21st Century skills, we are confident Manchester students will be equipped to utilize, adapt and ultimately succeed in an ever-changing digital environment. Our tech courses are constantly evolving and we look forward to providing even more options in the near future.
Teachers regularly take advantage of Professional Development in many tech-related areas to improve instruction and incorporate these tools into lessons, including Google Education apps. Our staff also understands the need for "tech-free" times as well, to alleviate unhealthy habits related to screen time. Digital citizenship is instilled in all curricular areas that utilize technology as well.
