Principals Message
Welcome to Computech! Edison Computech 7-8 is an energetic and wonderfully diverse middle school that focuses on providing a wide variety of educational experiences through the use of integrated technology. A six-time winner of the California Distinguished School Award and a four-time winner of the National Blue Ribbon Award, our goal is to engage, challenge, inspire and support students so that they may excel academically. Our school is made up of students from all over the Fresno Unified School District and the city of Fresno. The result is a student body that reflects the ethnic, cultural, and economic diversity of our community. Our students' families join us from all over the world and represent a host of different ethnic groups and languages.
Computech is a school where students learn by doing. Project based learning activities enable students to develop critical thinking, research, communication and technology skills. Our school is focused on providing authentic, real-life learning experiences for students. Our unique eight-period schedule offers students the maximum in academic and elective options, enabling all students to take two years of computer literacy, science, math, English, social studies and physical education in addition to two electives each year. Course offerings are diverse and flexible to meet the needs of accelerated students as well as students with special interests or needs. In all ways, the Computech program strives for excellence and encourages students to achieve their highest personal and academic potential.
Computech believes in frequent and ongoing communication between the school and home to help keep our students informed and our parents connected. I would like to encourage all our parents to stay connected to the progress of their child by reviewing their student agenda each day. I also encourage you to visit our website frequently as a way to communicate with myself and the Computech staff as well as a means of staying updated with important upcoming events and activities.
Sincerely,
Jeremy Ward
