The goal of the Marie
Gallagher Resource Center is to assist all students in becoming
active and creative locators, evaluators, and users of information
to solve problems and to satisfy their own curiosity. With
these abilities, students can become independent, ethical and lifelong
learners. We aim for information literate students who have
the ability to locate, process, evaluate and utilize information
that comes to them in a variety of formats. We seek to
provide our students with equitable access to the library and its
resources as well as a facility that is welcoming, with a climate
conducive to individual and shared learning.
The Marie
Gallagher Resource Center is open every school day at 7:30 am and
remains open until 3:30pm. Students are welcome to check out
as many books as they need for a period of 2 weeks.
