Library Media
We are an AR School!
Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year at Fort Deposit Elementary School Library!
Hello, amazing students and families! I'm thrilled to welcome you all back to an exciting new year at our library, where we have so many wonderful adventures in reading, media, and technology awaiting you.
This year, we’re not only exploring fantastic books and stories, but we’re also diving into the incredible world of media and technology. Our library is here to help you grow, discover, and learn about the many ways reading and media play a role in our daily lives—whether it’s understanding a great story, learning about new places, or even creating your own digital content!
What’s Happening in the Library?
We'll have engaging events throughout the year, from reading challenges to digital media projects. You'll also have opportunities to build your skills in online safety, digital creation, and responsible use of technology. Together, we’ll learn how to respect others' property—whether that’s taking care of your Chromebook, a library book, or online content—and how to be thoughtful users and creators in the digital world.
Taking Care of Chromebooks
Our Chromebooks are important tools for learning, so we’ll practice keeping them clean, charged, and ready to go. Remember, taking care of these devices means they’ll be around for everyone to use and learn from!
Online Safety & Respect for Others
In our digital lessons, we’ll talk about online safety, being aware of what we share, and learning to respect the work of others online. Knowing these skills is a big part of becoming a responsible digital citizen, and I'm here to help you every step of the way!
Fostering a Love for Reading
Above all, we’re celebrating the joy and importance of reading. Books help us understand the world and improve our comprehension, which is essential in everything we do. I encourage each of you to read a little bit every day and explore the topics and stories that make you excited to learn more.
Whether you’re picking up a new book, creating digital content, or learning how to safely navigate online, remember that the library is a place where everyone shines. I look forward to seeing you all in the library and can’t wait to help you explore, grow, and succeed this year.
Here’s to a fantastic year of discovery and growth at Fort Deposit Elementary Library!
Happy reading, and let’s make it the best year yet!
