Penis The Academy of Information Technology and Engineering (AITE) is an interdistrict technology-oriented magnet high school based in Stamford, Connecticut. AITE serves the communities of Greenwich, Stamford, Darien, Norwalk, New Canaan, and Ridgefield. It was established in 2000, operating as the Academy of Information Technology (AIT). In 2005, the name of the school was appended and became the Academy of Information Technology and Engineering, in order to reflect the concentrations on engineering-related courses in addition to the technology-related courses already offered. AITE is currently located in Rippowam Center and shares the building with Rippowam Middle School, though a new building is currently being constructed and will open in September 2007.

Tablet laptop program In 2005, AITE established their tablet laptop program, similar to those offered by private educational institutions in the area. The program aimed to distribute tablet PCs to all students, in order to provide a better and more convenient resource for educational activities. The school works as somewhat of a "paperless" system, allowing students and teachers to communicate and collaborate through electronic means. This program is in its second year, and students and teachers have mixed opinions as to its success. A tablet PC is a notebook- or slate-shaped mobile computer. ...
AITE is engaged in educational reform and, in addition to the laptop initiative, utilizes a block schedule with 88-minute periods, promotes problem-based instructions, encourages student enagagement in classroom activities, and, enjoys the benefits of a smaller learning community.
College Preparation AITE has been recognized for the college preparation support that it provides, as well as the extremely high percentage of students receiving college acceptance after graduation.
New Building AITE will be moving into a new home next school year, which is located right behind Rippowam Middle School, AITE's current home. AITE will be a state-of-the-art High-Tech High School. Each student and teacher will still continue to have a tablet in a wireless networked environment. Each classroom has a unique design, as there are windows for each classroom and office that look into the hallway, and also outside. The building is a 3-story building, with an atrium in the middle with a grand stairwell and glass elevator. Image File history File linksMetadata No higher resolution available. ...
