It is the goal of the Information Technology Department to integrate modern concepts of technology into the student classroom across the curriculum.

Every single classroom contains at least one internet connected computer and in addition, every science lab is outfitted with several computers used for simulations and tutorials. Students may also access computers and printers from the school library.
