Academy for Academics and Arts Mission Statement
The Academy for Academics and Arts offer learning services, books, and resources that encourage and empower students to be critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, skillful researchers, and ethical users of information.
Description of Services
Our library provides students and staff with open access to approximately 14,000 print resources and continuous access to several eBooks. Library materials are carefully selected to supplement the school curriculum, ensure diversity, and to inspire a love of reading and learning. We use a fixed/flexible schedule that provides access for all students and staff. All Pre-K through second grade classes visit the library once a week for thirty minutes. We utilize a flexible scheduling system with third through eighth grade. Teachers collaborate with the library media specialist to plan small or whole group activities that incorporate library and information skills with classroom content on an as needed basis.
