Gust Elementary students are emerging as 21st Century learners with help of our new computer lab. Gust Elementary has purchased 34 new Dell computers for our computer lab. The $25,000 computer lab gives Gust students the ability to learn and improve their 21st Century skills by giving them the chance to work with up to date computers and software.
Our lab has been opened for about a week and our students and teachers have not wasted anytime getting their tech skills moving! Our students are doing everything from using their student email accounts to complete assignments and playing online math games. Our fifth grade students are even Blogging and using G-Cast voice recordings online. With the months to come, our Gust Students will become savvy tech users ready to tackle on the 21st century.
