What could be more compelling than working with information in the Digital Age? Carteret County Public School System recognizes the power and potential of information and technology to support, enhance, extend, and transform teaching and learning in the twenty-first century.  We blend our resources--rich media centers, robust networks, vast technology holdings, and competent professionals--to open windows to the world for the benefit of student learning.

Computers and digital technology are vital to education, work, and recreation today. Technology resources add value to every content area and grade level in The North Carolina Standard Course of Study. Carteret County public school students rank among the top in the state when it comes to passing the N. C. Computer Skills Competency Test.

Our school system remains proactive in providing technology assets for students and staff. Currently, we have a student to instructional computer ratio of 1:2.5. All computers are networked, have Internet access and are equipped with software. Students and staff have data folders that reside on school servers. Survey results show on average our students utilized computers in school more than 66,915 times each week. Additional computers are used by teachers, staff and administrators.
