Technology
Our goal is to stay on the cutting edge of technology and help staff and students enhance the educational experience through multimedia tools.
State-of-the-Art Classrooms
Each teacher receives training specific to the resources we provide so they can maximize the use of devices in their classrooms. In addition to a computer lab, we provide:
- iPads (school-owned for ninth–12th-graders)
- Smart TV in every classroom
Cell Phone Policy
K4–fourth grade parents may request permission from the administrator for their child to carry a cell phone in their backpack.
Fifth through eighth-grade students may have cell phones on campus, but they must leave them in the front office at the start of the day and pick them up when they leave school.
Students in grades nine through 12 may carry cell phones and use them before and after school, between classes, and at lunch. However, teachers will collect phones at the start of class unless they are needed during that period.
Internet Use
The purpose of all our electronic resources and the internet is to support the school’s educational mission. Consequently, student use of these resources must be for matters directly related to one’s academic studies at Maranatha Christian Academy.
Please read more about our network and our acceptable use policy in the MCA Parent-Student Handbook.
Digital Citizenship
We practice good digital citizenship by being safe, responsible, and respectful users of technology. Staff will model these practices through instruction and interaction with students. To learn more about what digital citizenship means and how you can keep your child safe on the internet, visit Common Sense Media.
