Program Description
Our school library is committed to providing a welcoming, inclusive, and innovative space that promotes a love of learning and reading among our students. Our mission is to foster a culture of literacy and lifelong learning by providing access to a diverse collection of resources, technology, and collaborative learning opportunities. We aim to empower our students to become critical thinkers, effective researchers, and responsible digital citizens. By partnering with our teachers and community, we strive to create a dynamic learning environment that inspires creativity, curiosity, and intellectual growth.
The Library Learning Commons is, first and foremost, a welcoming and comfortable space. It includes a robust selection of over 15,000 books with a variety of seating and working areas, tables, a couch area, two different desktop computer areas, a large screen projection unit, a high-bandwidth wi-fi network, materials, and equipment available to our staff and students.
