Computer Lab

Welcome to the Computer Lab.  I am Mr. Caldwell and I joined Pinello Elementary in August 2021.  

We focus on a variety of activities in the computer lab.  Students will be working on internet safety, typing practice, learning to use Google Suite, and introduction to coding.  We use a number of different educational sites and games to keep it fun while the students are learning about some of the technology available.  

My contact information is   caldwelljeffery@wsd3.org
