Mission and Goals
Welcome to the CCPS Library website! Our school serves pre-k, kindergarten, first grade and second grade students. The CCPS Library operates on a combined fixed/flexible schedule, seeing 41 classes every two weeks, plus many individuals and small research groups. Our mission is to assist students and staff in becoming effective users of ideas and information and in developing a lifelong love of reading and learning. During library time, students explore stories, informational text and technology through lessons and centers.
Students will participate in library media classes for thirty minutes on one day each week. Students will be able to check out ONE book from the library if they are in kindergarten and TWO books if they are in first and second grade. Students may take these books home and enjoy with their families for two weeks. They will return the book(s) every other week and will be given the opportunity to check out new books.
