Technology

Technology is simply part of the everyday fabric of life at The Webb Schools.

A Spanish teacher cross-references an 18th century poem to a painting archived on a website. A music teacher uses a computer program to score arrangements for the instrumental ensembles while French students take a virtual tour of the Louvre via CD-ROM. Technology at The Webb Schools is a catalyst for learning and prepares students to be part of the transformation that will define the 21st century.

Technology in the Classroom

The Webb Schools are at the forefront of utilizing technology in the classroom and incorporating it campus-wide. The school's technology resources are state-of-the-art and, even more importantly, they have been implemented efficiently and with one goal in mind: to improve the quality of education in all subject areas.

Webb’s technology tools are as exceptional as our teachers and they provide countless opportunities for students to expand their horizons – from participating in a model United Nations conference via the Internet to constructing a virtual molecule with software. Using the most advanced technology available, such as Webb’s scanning electron microscope (an instrument most often found in a college lab), our students are doing work usually reserved for graduate school. The Webb Observatory houses a Celestron-14 telescope. Classrooms are electronically outfitted and feature SmartBoards and projectors. Webb’s Electronic BroadBand Information Expressway (or WEBBIE as it is commonly known) links it all – dorms, classrooms, labs and the library.
