Library
Our Middle School Learning Commons is a space designed to inspire students to create, collaborate, and communicate using technology made possible in part by the approval of our recent $76 million bond proposal.
Students enjoy a quiet study area, flexible work stations for small and large groups, an extensive print and digital resource library, and an ever-growing collection of instructional technologies. Our Learning Commons is staffed by a full-time Media Technician with guidance from a certified Media Specialist.
Library Book Check-out Guidelines:
- Students are allowed to check-out three books or magazine per visit.
- The loan period for all students is one week.
- Parents are welcome to visit and check-out books at any time. The loan period for parent check-outs is two weeks.
The Library is an integral part of Classroom Learning
- Each classroom visits the Learning Commons on a fixed schedule each week for book check out. In addition, students are welcome at any other time with their teacher's permission.
- Each class receives instruction on a fixed schedule for 30 minutes per week.
- The remaining time in the week is available for flexible scheduling to allow for collaborative planning between classroom teachers and the media specialist, as well as small group work.
