Technology

The Technology Department endeavors to

maintain the Wide Area Network for the division as well as all Local Area Networks for.the schools and school board office
provide leadership for the planning of future implementation of new technologies and the effective use of current technologies
provide training for staff in the usage of such technologies. Our educators have learned how and when to best use technology to enhance classroom instruction.

Our technology is governed by The Colonial Beach Schools Technology Plan which has been approved by the Colonial Beach School Board and the Virginia Department of Education. The Colonial Beach community and school system believe in the value of technical literacy. There is wide representation throughout the town on the Technology Committee that meets throughout the year and which supports the Six-Year Plan, the NCLB TaskForce and Virginia’s Standards of Learning.
