Goals
To make certain that Bow students are prepared for success in school, post-secondary education, career, and life in a globally connected society, it is crucial that the goals of the district’s Google Apps for Education and 1:1 Chromebook initiatives are consistent with state and national standards, such as the National Educational Technology Standards for Students (ISTE Standards S), Next Generation Science Standards, and the Common Core State Standards. Furthermore, it is important that the goals of these initiatives are connected to the Bow School District Strategic Plan.

Participate in a variety of opportunities to demonstrate the relevance and interconnectedness of their knowledge and skills.
Use technology tools to communicate, collaborate, create and publish their work.
Engage in increasingly personalized and student-centered learning environments.
Demonstrate and model the attitudes and attributes of a responsible digital and global citizen.
