The Role of Technology
Beverly Public Schools recognizes that digital literacy is a fundamental component of the 21ST Century skill base we hope to cultivate in our students. And more importantly, creating a generation of students with a strong background in digital literacy will enable the development of other skills necessary for competition in a growing, global marketplace such as critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, innovation, communication, and collaboration. The school district and the City of Beverly should make sure that the faculty, staff and students of the Beverly Public School system have the technology infrastructure and resources needed to develop essentials skills in order to compete, lead and innovate in the future.
Technology in Our Schools
The district has worked hard to provide technology devices and infrastructure needed to support instruction and at the same time provide professional development opportunities to staff to make best use of technology. All our schools benefit from an abundance of high speed internet access with wireless access in every classroom. Below is just a snapshot of what technology devices we currently have in our schools.
