Smart Students Use Smart Tools

The SHHS Library website provides students with effective strategies for information searching (research), study, and information & learning fluency.  These are proven practices drawn from leading academic research and tailored for diverse and high-potential high school students.

Why it matters:

• Research skills unlock deeper thinking: Learn how to ask sharper questions and find authoritative answers fast.

• Proven study strategies beat cramming: High performers use what works, not just what feels familiar.
