Welcome back to the St. Thomas More computer lab. This will be the start of my sixth full year at STM. One of the hallmarks of this program is to adapt to the changing needs of the students. This year will be no different.

This year we will again restructure the technology program. For the 2010-11 the technology program will expand with regular technology instruction for the 4th and 5th grade students. These students will participate in technology lessons based on grade level curriculum. New for this year, the technology program will be adjusted to a series of quarter length electives. Each elective will meet 3 times a week for 9 weeks.

For those parents who are new to St. Thomas More or the Middle School, my days of instruction are all day Monday-Thursday, and limited to Friday morning. After 10:15 Friday and weekends I work as an independent computer and web consultant. If you have any reason to contact me during the school year, please feel free to email me at mthrom@st-thomasmore.org or feel free to call me at (919)593-1961.
