Technology

The vision of the Liberty Central School District’s technology department is to enhance the learning success of each student through an integrated instructional approach to the use of technology.

We believe that all students will demonstrate information literacy through the ability to use instructional technology to access, analyze, and communicate information and the ability to use the tool of technology to build success across all curriculum areas.

The district’s technology plan represents a continuing long-term commitment to providing current resources and training for students and staff to excel technologically in the 21st century. The plan provides a framework for consistent improvement in the areas of instruction, business management, and administration consistent with the district’s vision and goals.
