ACADEMICS: Information technology

St. Bonaventure has over 125 computers on campus.  There are 76 computers available for student use. Every teacher's desk and all staff desks have a computer. Most of our classrooms have DLP projectors installed and connected to the teachers’ computers. There are currently 10 servers maintaining two local domains and two of our three websites.

All of our faculty, staff, and student computers are running the Windows® 7 Professional operating system. All school computers have Microsoft® Office 2010 Suite installed. Many of our computers are running other specialized programs for particular course needs.

Every teacher, staff member and student has a unique login ID. Student IDs are more restrictive and are more closely monitored. All student internet access is filtered and recorded. Student documents and folders are routinely checked. Teachers and staff members are allowed to access student grades, attendance and information. Students and parents may access student grades, attendance and assignment information online. Faculty and staff are also provided with e-mail and voice-mail. Students are not allowed to access their e-mail or social networking sites on campus.

The three websites that are maintained by St. Bonaventure High School are www.saintbonaventure.com, www.sbhshome.net, and www.sbhshome.org. The first site has general information about St. Bonaventure. It has contact information, the school calendar, athletic schedules, etcetera. It also includes the teachers' class webpages for students (and parents) to access handouts, syllabi, videos, presentations, and other various information for specific class needs. The second website is where teachers post their grades and where parents and students can access their grading and attendance information. The third website is St. Bonaventure's Library Book Catalog.

Students are allowed to use the school's computers throughout the day. The SBHS Library Resource Center has 20 computers available exclusively for student use. They are all running Windows 7 Professional and Microsoft Office 2010. The SBHS Library Resource Center is open from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM.
