Mission Statement
The mission of Lamar Consolidated ISD Librarians is to create a physical and digital environment in which our students, staff, and community can strengthen their natural inquisitive nature, foster a love of reading, and serve as a collaborative resource for teachers and staff in developing and delivering powerful learning experiences across all curricular areas.
Our library is:
- A welcoming, comfortable environment conducive for maximum student and staff learning and collaboration.
-
An all-encompassing entity for encouraging students and staff to become lifelong learners, as well as critical thinkers.
-
An encouraging body committed to facilitate strategies that stimulate student centered learning in academics, research and technology.
"Readers are Leaders"
Student Checkout and Classes
Library classes are conducted for grades K - 5 during Innovative School Days.
Kindergarten students are permitted to checkout one book per visit. Students in 1st through 4th grades may check out two books per visit. Students in 5th grade may check out 3 books per visit. Students are allowed to exchange books every morning from 8:30-9:30.
Library Activities
The library sponsors two Book Fairs each year in the fall and in the spring. The proceeds from the Book Fairs provide new library books and additional materials. The library also sponsors reading programs including Beanstack, and the LCISD Spring Book Festival.
LCISD Family Selection Policy
Lamar CISD families are encouraged to monitor and adjust student selection of library materials based on their individual family values. Family expectations regarding library books checked out by a student should be discussed with the student by the guardian and reviewed as necessary to ensure the student understands their family expectations. Books may be returned to the library at any time if a student or parent objects to the content.
Volunteers
