Many students come to high school as two-finger typists. We take care of that because every day for the first 5-10 minutes of class, our students go on Typing.com to become more proficient in their typing skills.
Digital Literacy
In this course, students will learn how to become digital experts by familiarizing themselves with hardware, software, and many issues surrounding information technology like identity theft, cyberbullying, ergonomics, etc.
