At Catlin Gabel, technology is integrated into each division. The school is a dual-platform campus supporting both Macintosh and Windows computers. The nearly 600 computers on our campus network include a Lower School lab, three Middle School laptop carts and one Upper School lab. In the fall of 2002, the Upper School implemented a comprehensive laptop program, making computer technology accessible to every student.

Digital cameras and word processors are used in the Beginning School to document the children's work and the stories they tell. In the Lower School, students are introduced to keyboarding, word processing, and research skills, and they create their first computer projects. Word processing, research, electronic presentations, web design, spreadsheets, and databases are integrated into many curriculum areas in both the Middle and Upper Schools. The Upper School also offers a series of computer science classes and art classes that use technology as their primary tool.

If you are planning to purchase a laptop for your child, please order through Catlin Gabel. This will make it possible for your child to gain full access to network resources at school. Please visit the Laptop Ordering Information web page.
