Technology Education

Middle school students are caught in an immense and confusing hi-tech revolution.  Our goal is to guide students toward discovering the excitement and promise of technology while we prepare them to competently apply various technologies in their present and future lives.  Central’s technology lab contains 16 learning modules. Students will choose which topics they would like to study and, as time and availability permit, they will be scheduled into those modules.  The modules that students have available to choose from are Road Transportation, Aerospace, Aerodynamic Principles, Alternate Energy, Power and Energy, Pneumatics, Engineering Structures, Construction and CAD, CAM/CNC Mill, Robotics, Multimedia Basics, Desktop Publishing, Lasers and Fiber Optics, Graphic Design, Manufacturing and Automation, and Video Production.   Grade 8 students will also work on individual or team projects in Central’s traditional industrial technology lab.  Grade 7 students will also work on a model rocketry unit in Central’s traditional industrial technology lab.
