Technology & Programs

Arcadia has added lots of technology to our classrooms. Classrooms have Smart Boards and chromebooks for every student. We’re working hard to make our STEAM school technologically advanced for 21st century learners.

Our vision this year is to inspire students to be lifelong learners and enable them to have the 21st Century skills for college and career readiness. Technology and a STEAM mentality will help us achieve this vision.

We use programs such as Wonders; Go Math; Lexia Core reading; STMath; Online writing; Typing Agent; PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) to establish school-wide behavior expectations to promote learning. Assessments using Acadience Reading and Math. Benchmark Testing using RISE and KEEP.
