Technology at Long Ridge is a tool for creation, exploration, and problem-solving. Beginning in the early grades, students are introduced to foundational concepts in coding and digital communication through hands-on experiences with robots, codable toys, and age-appropriate software. As they progress, students build programming skills using platforms like Scratch and Code.org, applying logical thinking to design games, animations, and interactive projects.

By second grade, students are learning to write, test, and debug more complex code, while also using productivity tools such as Google Docs, Slides, and Canva to support their research and presentations. Older students explore the intersection of technology and design through projects that include circuit building, 3D printing with Tinkercad, and interdisciplinary work like designing floor plans or creating prototypes inspired by historical inventors.

Collaboration, creativity, and digital literacy are central to the program, with opportunities for students to work independently or in small groups at their own pace. Across the grades, technology is integrated into core academic subjects to enhance learning and prepare students to be adaptable, thoughtful, and empowered digital citizens.
