Welcome to our fabulous library where inquisitive minds enter and extraordinary journeys begin.
We have a wealth of resources for all your learning needs. The mission of our library is to encourage students and staff to be responsible users of ideas, information and technology. Students attend weekly library classes, learning research and technology skills as it relates to information literacy. Students also have opportunities to check out books during class time as well as during Open Circulation/Library times.
I have some exciting programs planned for the school year. Battle of the Books, Young Readers’ Choice, Read Across America, and of course our book fairs sponsored by our terrific PTA. I hope to start an online book club, as well as a Book Blog where students can share their favorite books with their peers.
I appreciate our volunteers who give a few moments of their time to help with library activities. If you would like to volunteer your time stop on by, we’d love to see you!
As always, if you have any questions please feel free to visit us at the library.
Respectfully,
Susan Koike
A Warm Welcome
“Every child needs a safe place to fall - a place where he or she can explore things without worrying about failure and judgment. A library is one of those places. In a library you can learn by following your own nose, which is very different from someone telling you what you should learn. Once a kid learns a library is hers, to use as she wants, the world opens up. I've seen it happen. It happened to me.”
—Bill Harley, storyteller
