Educational Technology

Providing an educational environment that supports all learners at high-levels is relevant and central to our mission. It prepares students to be contributing global citizens. Critical areas of focus include:

Leadership and Vision for 21st century teaching & learning.
A high performing Technology Infrastructure that connects students to the learning community from home and school, and provides the necessary technology tools and resources to support their learning.
Targeted Professional Development to continuously improve student achievement and integrate 21st century skills into their core curriculum.
Curriculum, Assessment and Instruction that integrates 21st century student outcomes using data driven decision making in support of continuous student improvement.
Forming strong Partnerships with and securing Funding from outside organizations (i.e. local school community, businesses, K-12 districts, higher ed institutions, local, state and federal government and other educational organizations) to support goals and initiatives.

Technology policies, tools and products to improve teaching and learning and and management are the focus of our work with ACCEPT member district and technology directors. We provide over 700 middle and high school students each year with innovative on-line courses through the ACCEPT/VHS Consortium and cooperative purchasing for internet services, hardware and software. ACCEPT has received a $250,000 Blended Learning professional development grant for 40 teachers representing 10 ACCEPT school districts.
