Instructional Technology

Career and college ready graduates are engineered in Dysart by integrating technology into instructional practices that emphasize 21st century skills.  The use of technology by teachers and students for communication and collaboration, as well as in support of critical thinking and creativity, is essential to learning the skills and competencies necessary to achieve college and career readiness.    

The Dysart Unified School District is focused on raising the relevance and rigor of education.  Ensuring students are equipped with the skills necessary to meet the challenges and opportunities in a 21st century global society are at the heart of the mission and vision.  The goal is to graduate all students ready for college, career and a productive life in this new century. Dysart is dedicated to going beyond providing preschool through grade 12 students with just the educational basics. To accomplish this, the district must work collaboratively with all stakeholders and actively involve parents and community members as partners.
