St. Michael’s Prep implements technology in a directed, thoughtful manner with the intent of creating academically excellent graduates who are equipped to thrive and positively contribute in a digital, global community.
Technology is integrated into all aspects of learning at St. Michael's Prep based on our core values of integrity, courage, and excellence as the guiding principles for creating future-ready learners who are digitally literate, cyber-aware, responsible and thoughtful contributors to the global community.
 
Our 1:1 device program along with a technology-infused curriculum and learning spaces support individualized learning experiences for our students integrated with STEAM, PBL and SEL principles creating academic excellence and digital awareness in our students.

At the Upper School, we offer a comprehensive curriculum that provides instruction in fundamental computer programming, software apps, programming in a high-level language, design and production of print materials, digital design, robotics programming and design, web design, and immersive technology. Our courses support the entire school's curriculum in that we prepare students to use and integrate technology throughout their coursework, and work with faculty members to implement technology in all classrooms.
 
Our technology courses allow students to apply the acquired knowledge in several ways. First, they give students who wish to pursue degrees in technology a solid foundation on which to build. Second, our courses give students a taste of what an eventual career in technology might entail. Our Upper School Technology courses offered include, but are not limited to: 3D Modeling with SketchUp, Advanced Computer Science, Intro to Animation, Robotics Programming and Design, Web Design I and II, and Unreal Engine Immersive Technology.
