The Library Media Program at Christ the King Catholic School is committed to the success of its students, enabling them to become lifelong learners and effective users of information preparing them for the future. Through collection development, teacher collaboration and student instruction, the library works to support the curriculum, facilitate information literacy skills, foster literature appreciation and a love of reading, and promote social responsibility.
Our library is a beautiful facility with approximately 10,000 books purchased to enhance the curriculum and support a love of reading. Students in grades K-5 come to the library once each week to check out books, listen to a story, do library research using text and computer resources, work on projects, and read. Students in grades 1 through 8 can also come to the library during their lunch recess period.
At Christ the King Catholic School, we utilize the Accelerated Reader program to promote and encourage reading. Each student in 2nd through 5th grades will have a personal reading goal established for them as an individual reader that will count as a reading quiz grade at the end of each quarter. Students in 1st grade will begin this program in the second quarter since they spend first quarter learning and practicing how to use the Accelerated Reader program.
At the end of the year, the library will acknowledge the effort of students who read and earned points higher than their individual set goals with the Top Reader for the Year Awards (for grades 1 through 8).
