Salerno. It collaborates with the police to disseminate principles of active citizenship among the
school population. It promotes interesting activities and participates as a partner in numerous
projects at local, national and European level. The school, despite the lack of some spaces, is well
maintained and it is evident the goodwill and the ability to organize places to live outside teaching
from the classroom, with particular reference to the laboratories.
The school, thanks to the sharing of community programs, can count on discrete technological
equipment: website, digital boards, multimedia laboratories, scientific laboratory. Every member
of the staff uses it systematically and competently. The use of laboratory spaces from part of the
students is constant, they are used both in the curriculum and in the extra, even in the primary
and secondary school. Aspects related to environmental sustainability/energy are taken into
account, with the preparation of requests to the local authority and specific plans (specific project
