In 2013, our school implemented our Digital Learning Environment (DLE) initiative. This initiative began with providing every 4th through 8th grade student with an iPad for use in the classroom and at home.
We have since expanded this one to one initiative to the 3rd, 2nd, 1st and kindergarten students for use in the classroom.
Excellence in education requires that technology is seamlessly integrated throughout the educational program. Our teachers here at St Ben's are master facilitators of learning.

In addition to iPads, St Benedict School's computer lab is equipped with MacBook Air®, as well as a mobile cart with MacBooks available for student/classroom use. All grade levels receive instruction twice a week in the lab. Mrs. Eichinger provides instruction for Kindergarten through Fifth Grades. Mrs. Franzen provides instruction for Sixth through Eight Grades.
Computer lab curriculum is aligned with Iowa Core's 21st Century - Technology Literacy skills.
