Developing 21st-century skills to ensure success in a rapidly changing world.
Our technology and library media specialists develop programs that enhance and innovate teaching and learning through three key areas: Libraries, Information Technology, and Makerspaces. Our programs foster creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, communication, meaningful connections, data-driven instruction, and stimulation through high-expectations.
Teaching and Services
The library is open from 8:00am to 6:00pm, Monday through Friday. Our librarians are available to provide information literacy instruction in classrooms, in the library and online. They work with classes in all areas of the curriculum. One-on-one assistance from professional librarians is available everyday during library hours, in person or via chat. And, of course, members of our community can always come to the library for reading and research recommendations.
Collections
View our high school library catalog and ebooks. The library hosts a dynamic, curriculum-driven print and digital collection. Large collections are available in French and English, as well as special collections in Spanish, Italian and German. An international periodical collection and database subscriptions allow students to access high-quality, current information.
Resources for Digital Literacy
As the information landscape is ever-changing, our libraries are agile and adaptive spaces for learning and exploration in academics and in life. Our librarians collaborate with faculty to design and implement learning experiences to fit the evolving informational needs of students across the curriculum. They explore and impart emerging and existing approaches to digital literacy to meet research and everyday needs of classes and individuals alike. Using elements of design thinking, librarians help students develop critical thinking skills in order to judge the reliability, authenticity, and credibility of information.
An Inviting Space
Student work, artifacts from international adventures, and topical exhibits make our libraries a lively and engaging space. Students make the library their office and home-away-from-home as they study, access their online classes, share ideas, read, and relax.
