The mission of Underwood’s Media program is to build relationships between staff, students, and the community in order to support the selection and use of the right resources and tools for the right learners at the right time.
The Underwood Media Tech Program seeks to create an environment that promotes learning for all students by providing equitable access to information, teaching information literacy skills, and encouraging lifelong learning. The library media center strives to be a space of collaborative learning and communication that produces creative students who have an appreciation of literature, critical thinking skills, and respect for others and themselves.
