Grolier Online

Our Media/Technology department supplemented by the school budget purchased another year subscription of Grolier Online! You should use this online encyclopedia whenever you need to research for school projects. It could also be used for just exploring topics and viewing the many movies on the feature showcase. There are learning games that are available on "America the Beautiful" and the "Grolier Multimedia Encyclopedia".

Rochester Community Schools Foundation

Our Media Center was able to purchase 220 new library books thanks to the Rochester Community Schools Foundation! The 2006 Golf Outing raised funds to supplement a Media Center book refresh for the entire School District. The students and staff are thrilled to read these new books. Each book has a book plate recognizing the Foundation's gift as well as giving the opportunity for the community to further donate towards this exceptional cause.
