Computer Lab
 
PICNIK
an online program for editing pictures

Our computer lab has twenty-eight computers, purchased in 2007, for students to use, as well as a teacher workstation and Promethean Board. 

Programs you can download on your home computer.  They're free!

We still use Microsoft Office 2003 in the computer lab.

PGCPS Internet Use Policy

All students are expected to adhere to the acceptable use policy referred to in the Code of Student Conduct, Section X.

  • Students will visit only those sites that are related to school work. 

  • Students will respect all copyright laws.

  • Students will log on to the computers, and keep their passwords a secret.

  • Students will take care of the computer equipment.

  • Students will not give out personal information such as an address or telephone number.

  • Students will not use chat lines or instant messaging while at school, unless authorized by the teacher.

When students are allowed to use computers during recess, we are more lenient about which sites they may visit.  However:

  • Students may not visit any site which violates the Code of Student Conduct (sites depicting violence, using inappropriate language, etc.)

  • Students may not create any accounts on any site.  This must be done at home, with parent's permission.  However, if they have an account on a site, they may use it during recess.  One of our most popular sites for second and third graders last year was "Poptropica"

  • Parents who wish to restrict their children's internet use should contact the classroom teacher or Mrs. Clemens.
