Library

The Library Program aims to provide the following services to students and staff:
  • Provide a current collection of books, periodicals, audiovisual, and digital resources organized in an easily accessible manner.
  • Provide equipment and facilities for the varied needs of students and staff (quiet study area, small group discussion, group instruction, computer access, A/V supplies and storage).
  • Provide information services, encouraging students to develop research and information management skills. Developing information management skills is an ongoing goal of the Resource Center.
Library is open before and after school, recess and lunch time, as well as regular school hours for staff and supervised student use.
