Mission Statement

Our vision for Divine Mercy Academy is that all students will be able to have access to computers as they are fully integrated into the curriculum. The students will be computer literate and be able to use the technology available because they will receive instruction from a well trained staff. In addition, computers will become a common teaching tool in the classroom. We will develop a computer-friendly environment for both students and teachers.

Facilities

Divine Mercy Academy has a quality networked computer lab with access to the Internet, color printers, a scanner, and a digital camera.

The current lab contains 18 Windows XP computers with Internet access, a server, and a networked color printer.

The entire school and the lab has been rewired and a number of computers are present in each classroom. There are four smart boards, four overhead projectors and 10 VCRs/dvds available as well.

Each teacher has access to a state of the art networked computer and smart software. All teachers have email and online grade access.

The second floor classrooms are networked in the school for access to shared files, Internet access and printers. Several wireless access points are also available.
