The pandemic forced change on many people and businesses, most notably with the more significant use of modern technology. Think about the increase in the use of digital meeting applications such as Zoom or food delivery companies.

Changes were also true for St. Wendelin School, as the pandemic brought on a significant increase in the use of technology for the students at the school from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade.

“With COVID, that’s where we started to try and make these improvements with technology to keep the students learning throughout that time ,” said JoLynn Clouse, school principal.

All students and teachers received a Chromebook to work from during the pandemic. A purchase like this was necessary as the school changed from in-person to online learning, but it led to more technological changes for the school in the post pandemic era as well.
