Mission

The mission of the library media program is to ensure that students and staff are effective users of ideas and information. This mission is accomplished through the following:

  • By providing digital and physical access to materials in all formats
  • By providing instruction to foster competence and stimulate interest in reading, viewing, and using information and ideas
  • By working with other educators to design learning strategies to meet the needs of individual students

Hours and Access

The Library is open from 7:20 to 2:15 every school day, but operates on a flexible schedule based on student need.
