- Secure Digital Footprint
  
  for a modern world
  
  Saint Andrew Catholic School provides a secure, modern technology environment that enhances learning and prepares students for success in an increasingly digital world.
  Our computer lab features Dell OptiPlex 7090 computers, Chromebooks, iPads, printers, and Promethean Titanium Active-Panels, all connected through Verizon FIOS Gigabit internet and protected by a Fortinet Firewall for safe online learning.
  Students attend weekly computer lab classes for hands-on digital instruction. Grades 2–8 use Chromebooks 1:1, while K–1 share Chromebook and iPad carts. Every classroom includes a Promethean 75” panel, teacher laptop, printer, and full Wi-Fi access, allowing lessons to be interactive and engaging. Students can wirelessly share their work and collaborate in real time, strengthening communication and presentation skills.
- ISTE Curriculum
  
  Aligned with International Society for Technology in Education standards, our curriculum develops digital citizenship, problem-solving, creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and other essential 21st-century skills through purposeful, future-ready technology integration.
- An Ultimate Set of Tools
  
  Students learn internet safety, keyboarding, Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and programming.
  Younger grades focus on foundational skills; older students engage in coding, multimedia design, project-based learning, and 3D printing.
  Monitored networks, Malwarebytes protection, and on-site tech support safeguard students. Guided by ISTE standards, our programs foster creativity, collaboration, confidence, and future-ready digital leadership.
THE SKILLS OF TOMORROW ARE BEING TAUGHT here today.
- Coding, Graphic Design, Programming & 3D Printing
Our Machines
- Creality + MakerBot & Ultimaker = Infinite Possibilities
  
  Our computer lab has six outputs for 3D printing. Included in our current fleet are:
  Creality CR-10s
  Creality CR-10 Pro
  Creality Ender 3
  Makerbot Replicator+ (2)
  Ultimaker Original
Thingiverse
- Thingiverse
  
  Thingiverse is a website for sharing user-created digital design files, mostly free and open-source under GNU or Creative Commons licenses. Users can choose how their designs are shared and produced using 3D printers, laser cutters, or milling machines.
  Popular among DIY and Maker communities, Thingiverse hosts over a million open-source designs used for innovation, repair, decoration, and organization—allowing students to create and customize products themselves.
TinkerCAD
- TinkerCAD
  
  Tinkercad is a free, browser-based modeling program popular for 3D printing and teaching basic design in schools. It uses simple shapes—marked as solids or holes—that can be combined to create new forms. Users can also make custom shapes with its built-in JavaScript editor.
Ultimaker Cura
- Ultimaker Cura
  
  Cura is an open-source slicing software for 3D printers, created by David Braam and maintained by Ultimaker. Used by over a million people worldwide, Cura processes 1.4 million print jobs weekly and works with both Ultimaker and other 3D printers.
