Technology is incorporated in the curriculum and all performed activities throughout St. Philip Catholic School by the staff and students. At the lower school level, students attend the computer lab weekly to learn extensive computer skills while increasing their knowledge of subject matter on the computer. Junior High students visit the computer lab regularly to participate in class projects and research that integrate acquired technology skills into the curriculum, using a hands-on approach.
