Library Lessons & Services for Teachers
Licensed school library teachers and support staff are actively engaged in the implementation of the school's curriculum and instructional practices. We are here to support teachers in enhancing student learning and to provide professional support to classroom teachers to ensure high-quality instruction on information literacy, research techniques, citing sources, and accessing literature from a variety of genres (from NEASC Standards for Accreditation, 2023, standard 4.4).

Library Classroom Space
The library has a classroom area with a Promethean Panel and tables and chairs for up to 30 students. Staff may reserve this space by emailing/messaging Mary Lou or Kaila or by calling the library phone extension 21036. Please refer to the library calendar below to check on availability. We may be able to accommodate multiple classes at once if necessary.
