About Our Library

  • Our library has a collection of well over 15,000 items that circulate to students and staff.  We have non-fiction, fiction, picture books, graphic novels, Spanish, bilingual, e-books, and professional resources for teachers.

    The library is open every day from 8 am to 4:30 pm. Computers and printers are available for student use during the entire day. Many days, classes are in the library working on research projects, learning how to use the library effectively, and improving reading and writing skills.  We look forward to having you sit a spell, relax, read, work on classwork, research, or enjoy one of our many new magazine subscriptions.

    Books may be kept for 2 weeks or longer with renewal, and students in good standing may check out up to 2 books at a time.
