In 1974, the Parents’ Association allocated $10,000 toward the purchase of the school’s very first computer, which was considered an incredible investment into a single computer the size of a phone booth! Today, technology is integrated into the classroom.
The deeper integration of computer use into every grade and every discipline began in 1997 when the Middle School pioneered a “computers across the curriculum” initiative. In 2012, we rolled out our 1:1 initiative where every student in grades 5-12 receives a school-issued personal computing device as part of their educational experience. In 2015, Country Day was the first area school to be certified by Common Sense Media, a leading non-partisan, non-profit resource.
