Keeping up with the recent trend of education the Computer Department was established in the year 1992, on the 4th floor of the new building of St Xavier’s High School by Fr. Francis D’Mello s.j.
Under the Leadership of Fr. Evarist Newnes s.j. as Manager of school, Fr. Joaquim Mascarenhas s.j. as Principal, the department started for the secondary school with 15 computers and 3 staff, Mr. Leon Lobo, Ms. Suma Menon and Mr. Shirish Gade.
Fr. Herman Castelino s.j., who headed the school as its principal from 1993, upgraded the lab facilities to Pentium family.
A further addition of 15 Pentium computer came under the tenure of the current principal Fr. Baptist Pinto s.j., thus totaling the number of computers to 30, thus allowing facilitating one student per computer in a practical session.
In 2009, 60 computers have been installed in secondary section. This was by the initative of the 1981 batch. This will enable our boys to get the maximum benefit of the computer world and the internet.
Still with three able staff, Mr. Shirish Gade, Mrs Amita Abhyankar and Mrs. Deepa Gaitonde, the students are taught LOGO, OFFICE 2000, HTML, WEB PAGE DESIGNING AND PAGEMAKER 6.5.
The school staff and students use the computer lab facility for their PowerPoint presentations for assemblies, lessons, printing school reports and various science projects
