Our mission at The Lorge School is to prepare our students to become Leaders of their own passions, to approach obstacles with Optimism, to be Virtuous in their personal encounters, and to strive for Excellence in all endeavors. We expect our young men and women to prudently exhibit our four core virtues of temperance, fortitude, justice, and service. We take pride in being a community of learners dedicated to the pursuit of excellence through academic rigor, character education, civic responsibility, and most importantly LOVE.
The Smart Schools Bond Act, approved by New York State voters in 2014, authorized the issuance of $2 billion of general obligation bonds to finance improved educational technology and infrastructure to improve learning and opportunity for students throughout the State. The Lorge School has been allocated over $25,000 by the Office of Educational Design and Technology which reviews Smart Schools Investment Plans submitted by schools/districts wishing to utilize Smart Schools’ funds for educational technology related purchases, including:
Infrastructure to improve high-speed broadband or wireless internet connectivity for schools and communities
Learning technology equipment (such as computers, tablets, interactive whiteboards, and 3D printers)
High-tech Security Features in school buildings and on school campuses
The Lorge School would like to elicit feedback on how these funds are best utilized from our parent and employee community. Please take a few minutes to fill out the appropriate form (Parents or Staff) for administrative consideration.
