How Technology Class Differs from Smart Lab

While all K–5th grade students also attend Smart Lab, which focuses on STEM-related activities, the Technology class is unique in its focus on teaching the fundamentals of computer use.

In Smart Lab, K-8th grade students dive into hands-on projects that spark creativity and problem-solving skills, exploring robotics, coding, and other STEM topics.
