Our vision for the school's library media program is to:

• create an inviting learning environment.
• maintain a diverse collection of resources that encourages further exploration of personal interests.
• foster a life-long appreciation of literature and information access through reading.
• provide support for the school community to effectively use a variety of technologies within the classroom and the media center.
• design an instructional program that is seamlessly integrated with the school's curriculum.
• establish collaborative partnerships with colleagues that promote the development of effective instructional resources.
• increase student achievement of curricular learning outcomes.
• encourage information literacy, independent learning, and socially responsible use of information.
