Abstract

Toledo Central Catholic High School is now in its 3rd year of a 1 to 1 laptop program. This program provides an Apple MacBook laptop to each incoming freshman. The future of education is the driving force behind our program- One Connected Community. This program was designed and implemented in order to enhance student learning and achievement. We are committed to connecting and enhancing our curriculum by utilizing all that the world of technology has to offer. This laptop initiative, the cornerstone of our technology program, will offer our students the opportunity to participate in a global educational environment.
