by providing intellectual 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.

The library media center houses approximately 10,000 items, including books, magazines, audio and videotapes and DVD’s, and various pieces of equipment such as computers, overhead projectors, media players, and cameras.

The library media center is only as good as the support it receives from the District, the school and its patrons. The return of materials ON TIME is crucial for supporting the curricular needs of all students. It is important for patrons to return materials for others to access. Waiting until the end of the year to return overdue books is not acceptable. It becomes each patron’s responsibility to meet deadlines and, out of consideration for other users, to return materials no longer needed.

Parents are invited to visit the media center to see the day-to-day operation and to make suggestions for a stronger, more functional center.

TURN IN YOUR TEXTBOOKS!

Please turn in all textbooks you are not using this semester. It is important that you turn in books so we have books available for students currently taking those classes and we can account for and track more of the books we keep in our inventory.

Overdue Fines and "Lost Book" Fees

Attention all students:

There are many students who have books (library and textbooks) checked out on his/her account that are overdue or were not returned and are considered lost. You must either find and return the school’s copy or pay to replace the lost book. Students, these fines and fees must be paid before you will receive your graduation diploma.
