       Our card catalog is totally computerized and is available to the students on three computer workstations.  Grades K-6 visit the media center for a full class period weekly.  Grades 6-8 utilize the media center for both research and study hall.  Internet access is available through our school network system.   

      

Our Media Center also produces a live daily news show each morning on closed circuit television.   

Stop by and see us .
