The Middle School Library Media Center serves as the information and technology hub for the middle school community. The librarian teaches students to become competent researchers, global citizens, ethical users of information, and lifelong learners. Students learn the crucial and complex skills of locating and effectively using the best resources, thus embedding information literacy into all areas of the school curriculum. Within the library, the school community has access to two classroom computer labs, thousands of books, and several premiere online resources and eBooks, which students can also access from home.
