The library serves as the information and resource center of the
school. Our mission is to teach students to develop the research
and technology skills needed to find, analyze and communicate
information effectively. Through books, media, and technology,
students are encouraged to become lifelong readers and learners.
As instructional partners, the library staff collaborates with
teachers to provide orientation and instruction in library
resources, including the library catalog, online databases, and
research skills building.
As information specialists, the library staff provides leadership
and expertise in selecting, acquiring and managing high-level
print and digital resources. High interest young adult fiction
and teen-friendly periodicals offer student
enrichment.
Open throughout the school day, the library provides an engaging
environment for individual and group work with conference rooms
for faculty and peer tutoring, a library media classroom, a cozy
area for pleasure reading, walls filled with student art, and
school themed displays.
