LEARNING TECHNIQUES
Students use a wide range of learning methods. These include hands-on, small groups, and whole group teaching. SJCS recognizes the importance of making technology integration into students education at a young age. SJCS does this to prepare students for the future in a technologically driven world. In SJCS Elementary School, each class attends a computer class focused on developing these skills. Also, students are allowed the use of iPads and Chromebooks in academic classes to help with these skills. Each classroom is equipped with iPads and computers.
