Vision |
|
Our mission is to contribute to student achievement and lifelong learning by providing a representative collection of books and various resources that can be used to support the curriculum in partnership or in collaboration with classroom teachers. As well as insuring that the media center (Shark Central) is accessible to teachers of all subject areas and is available to all students as an extension of the classroom to further their educational experience and learning while at Atlantic High School.
|
Shark Central (Media Center @ AHS) is the school's largest classroom. A place where teachers can use the various spaces to deliver instruction in creative and innovative ways. It is also a safe space, where each and every student can continue to engage and contribute to their own learning. And an environment that cultivates a community of diversity and inclusion in ensuring that we all learn, grow, and succeed... together.

Explanation and background is also provided. Guided discussions could be had about these and past 100 books making this list. This observation simply celebrates our constitutional right as individuals to read and listen to the ideas of others.
