School Library
The School Library provides library and information services to students, teachers and the school community. It strives to develop the skills necessary to meet the lifelong informational needs of students, while encouraging them to develop a never ending love of reading.
The librarian works with teachers to achieve the outcomes of the school’s curriculum. Resources include an organized, current and diverse collection of books, magazines, audio-visual materials, games and reference materials.
The librarian organizes special events to promote reading including, author and illustrator visits, storytellers, “I Love to Read” week and two annual book fairs.
Computer Lab
Computers are used by all students from Pre-kindergarten at 4 years of age to seniors at 21.
Our students use a variety of programs: word processing, presentations, animation, drawing, manipulation of graphics and games that teach strategies, logic and creativity. The computer activities are planned in conjunction with classroom themes or projects which allow students to do research on the Internet. The students work on LEGO robotics projects in a number of classes. iPads are also used for various projects and photography.
Each classroom has its own smartboard and computers which are networked for the internet and printing. Classrooms also have access to iPads for special projects.
