Libraries

The Libru, opened in February, 2011. It serves children in EC3 and EC4 with over 5000 age-appropriate books in the collection. The space was designed with the young reader in mind: small furniture, comfy spots to sit and read, natural light and colors, natural plants, and three open seating areas for lessons and reading.

Children ages 3-6 are encouraged to check-out books independently and on a flexible time table. Students develop their confidence and ability to choose books to their liking by visiting The Libru regularly.

The elementary school library serves students in grades 1 through 5. Students and parents have access to over 20,000 age appropriate books, as well as magazines, DVDs, audiobooks, eBooks, and more. We also have MacBook Air laptops and iPads available for student use.

During units of study, ES classes visit the library for lessons in information literacy and research skills. Students are also encouraged to visit the library to check out materials independently so that they can pursue their own personal reading interests.

Throughout the year, the ES library hosts a variety of programs and initiatives in hopes of fostering a love of reading in our students, as well as to continually help build a community of readers.
