Aliceville High School Media Center
Welcome to the Aliceville High School Media Center webpage!!!
Here at AHS our students visit the media center with their English teacher on a weekly basis. In addition to scheduled class times, students may come alone or in small group for research purposes, Accelerated Reader testing and to check out books throughout the school day. Furthermore, teachers can reserve the media center to work on projects, research and more. It is our goal for the media center to be the hub of the school and we strive to have a truly open door policy
Mission Statement
In order to
succeed in today’s universities and be competitive in the workplace, it is
necessary that our students possess a diverse skill set. Here in the AHS media
center it is our goal to facilitate the development of these skills within our
students. In addition to checking out books, students work towards the goal of
building the information literacy, reading and computer skills that are so
critical to their success in the future.
The AHS media program seeks to create a 21st century
environment that promotes learning for all students by providing equitable
access to information, teaching information literacy skills, and encouraging
lifelong learning. The library media center strives to be a center of
collaborative learning that produces creative students who have an appreciation
of literature, critical thinking skills, and a respect for others and self.
Furthermore, we strive to provide students with the
opportunity to become not only lifelong users of information, but also creators
of information. The library will support the curriculum by collaborating
with teachers, developing a collection that is representative of the community,
and implementing literacy instruction for students.
