MISSION STATEMENT
The Holy Cross High School Media Center welcomes the opportunity to serve the academic and spiritual needs of our community. We provide a comfortable and welcoming venue for all our patrons looking for a place to read, do research or homework, or to work together. As the repository of centuries of sacred and secular thought we believe that reading and research improve critical thinking and provide the educational and moral foundation for the Holy Cross student.
As a fully accredited high school library, we provide our patrons with a wide variety of material and opinions. But as a Holy Cross school we also try to reflect a Catholic perspective when appropriate. We also recognize our responsibility to provide our students with material and teaching techniques geared to their often unique needs. To this end we continue to build a strong professional development collection for our faculty.
It is our goal to provide an environment in which all students can grow in their abilities to access and utilize information. Through library instruction students will develop critical thinking skills and will be able to process information in a creative manner. Students will use information and conduct research ethically. All students graduating from Holy Cross will be prepared as lifetime learners.
