Technology

At Park Tudor, technology is integrated into the curriculum as a way to enhance each student's learning experience. At a young age, Park Tudor students learn the fundamentals of typing and word processing. In the Upper School, the Technology Department offers courses ranging from basic keyboarding skills to web design.

Computers are used in the classroom for activities and research. Use of technology is complementary to the curriculum and encourages a self-discovery attitude toward learning.
