Welcome To The Media Center
The school media center serves as a hub for information, learning, and exploration. It provides resources that support the curriculum and enhance students' educational experiences. The media center is a place where students can discover new ideas, explore different perspectives, and develop critical thinking skills. It also serves as a space for collaboration, research, and creativity, supporting students in their academic pursuits and preparing them for success in a rapidly changing world.
Follett Destiny Discover
The Media Center uses Follett’s Destiny Library Manager to maintain our library collection. Patrons access the collection using Destiny Discover, a graphics based circulation software that allows them to search for print and digital content available in their school’s media center. Whether it’s a student or teacher looking for leisure reading/entertainment, materials to support homework or lesson planning, Destiny Discover will help them find what they’re looking for.
Destiny Discover can be accessed by students through Classlink. Look for Destiny Discover on the e-Library tab. To view our collection just choose the Destiny icon.
*Destiny allows you to see what your child currently has checked out from our library.
