Offering real life experiences is a goal of ours at J.R. Gerritts Middle School. We encourage our students to become life long learners and develop skills to help them take charge of their own learning and to create their own learning opportunities.
The Computer Applications Department at J.R. Gerritts Middle School is designed to prepare our students for the 21st Century. Students are engaging in technical applications more and more and we strive to make sure our students are ready.
We not only teach the technical abilities, but also the less concrete aspects. We teach our students how to critically think through a task, work in teams collaboratively and how to reach out to the global community using the technology readily available to us.

Interactive Computing Strategies

Do you have an interest in learning more about robotics? In this class you will work in teams using specialized computer software to design a robot that will move, react, make sound and more. While using this hands-on, project-based software you will be challenged to think creatively, work collaboratively, learn important computational ideas and use systematic reasoning to solve challenges presented to you while designing your robot.
