Mission of the Avon High School Libraries
The mission of the Avon High School Library program is to encourage the quest for knowledge and promote the joy of reading by providing free access to a variety of materials that meet both the educational curriculum and recreational reading needs of Avon High School students.
Goal for the 2014-2015 School Year
- co-teaching with teachers to help provide the best learning experience for each individual student
- working with students one-on-one as needed (searching for books, helping with individual research, providing individual learning stations)
