The mission of the Uxbridge Public Schools is to engage its students in a learning environment that prepares them for a rapidly changing world and to develop the skills and attitudes that will enable them to become responsible, contributing members of society. With the information age upon us, and the spread of technology into all areas of life, the integration of technology throughout the curriculum is necessary to fulfill our mission.

Our vision is for every student and staff member to develop the skills that allow them to use technology to access, analyze, create meaning, and communicate with information

Technology is used in the following manner throughout the district:

• The use of technology is focused on student achievement

• In addition to mastering technical competency skills, students use technology to develop critical thinking, information literacy, and communication skills

• Students will benefit from providing ongoing, sustained professional development for teachers, principals, administrators, and other school personnel to further the use of technology

• Every student has access to technology that is appropriate for his or her individual learning needs

• Technology is used to increase communication with parents and to increase parental involvement

• Technology is used to enhance communication amongst all staff

• Technology will be used for gathering and analyzing data for assessment of student achievement, curriculum, instruction, and programs and for designing and implementing assessments of student learning
