Putting the Future in the Hands of our Students and Staff
Our world is driven by technology. We must prepare our students for this world by shifting how we teach. My Tomorrow has introduced more technology into classrooms to give students greater exposure to the tools that are used in college and the workplace. Digital devices and software add a dynamic element that keeps students interested, but it’s not just about using the latest technology. Students are also learning about "digital citizenship," or making smart choices in their day-to-day lives and their social networks.

- iPad tablets for preschool through 1st grade
- Classroom projectors or interactive display boards

Device Repair
During the school year, students should report device problems to their teacher or contact the Family Technology Support Center at (513) 363-0688 to determine if the issue can be resolved over the phone. If it can't, a replacement device will be issued to the student at the school. The Family Technology Support Center hours are from 7:00 am-5:00 pm, during school days. You can also reach the center at FTS@cpsboe.k12.oh.us.

Monitoring Academic Progress
Monitoring academic progress is a key to a student’s success. Tools that allow parents to follow their children’s progress also enable teachers to shape curriculum to meet students' needs, and testing provides valuable feedback on a student’s progress.
PowerSchool — Accessed through your computer, PowerSchool allows both parents and students to keep track of academic progress on a daily basis in a private and password-protected program.
K-12 Testing — Testing throughout the school year provides teachers opportunities to determine a student’s skill level and to adjust to a student's academic needs. Testing is required for students wishing to enter programs with advanced curriculum and is required for graduation and entrance into college.
