Use of technology in the classroom
SCA classrooms are state-of-the-art. Each classroom is equipped with an interactive projector that utilizes SMART software. These tools mean that students can interact with classroom content in a variety of ways. SMART software provides opportunities for visual, audio, and tactile learners. SMART software also displays all forms of media, including videos, images, graphs, maps, illustrations, and games. All teachers have dual laptop/tablet devices, which give them the ability to move around the classroom while staying connected. For example, teachers can share a video with an individual student who may need a concept explained in a different way, monitor how students are using their own devices by moving to the back of the classroom, and even bring along their device during a field trip to augment the experience.
Learning Support
St. Catherine's Academy recognizes that our students come with a variety of learning styles and needs. We offer learning support services, after-school study hall, and advanced courses for gifted students.
