At
Huntsville Middle School, we are proud to provide our students with
every opportunity to excel in all areas. We believe that by
providing our students with a strong foundation in technology, we
are helping to open the door to their future success.
This year will be very exciting. We are going to be able to offer
keyboarding to every student during their computer lab time. Our
students will be using a computer based typing program called Micro
Type Multimedia. This program takes the student though basic
keyboarding skills for ABC’s, Numbers & Characters, and the Keypad.
Our
eighth grade students will be given the opportunity to excel to a
higher level by taking Advanced Keyboarding during their enrichment
time. After completing the Micro Type Program, these students will
advance to the Microsoft Office Programs Word and Excel, to create
various projects.
In lab #2, teachers bring their
students work in Compass Learning. This program is designed to remediate and
accelerate students' skills in language, math and reading.
Students are placed into subjects aligned with skills being taught in
the classrooms. To help students monitor and track progress,
they are required to record dates and scores in their student folders. |
