Larson Library
The Larson Library at Washington Academy is committed to ensuring that all students are effective users of ideas and information. The Larson Library strives to provide the school community with a wide range of materials on appropriate levels of difficulty that will encourage growth in knowledge, establish a life-long love of reading, create responsible digital citizens, and foster information literacy
Hours of Operation
The Larson Library operates on a flexible schedule. The library is open to students during all periods of the day and locker break. Students may visit the library during their study hall periods or during class with teacher permission. Students may visit the library to check out books, perform research for projects or papers, to get help with database access, to have a quiet space to study individually, or to work collaboratively on group assigned projects. Students may also visit the school library as part of their classroom instruction. In order to ensure that all students become effective users of information, all freshmen receive a library orientation and information literacy training via New Student Seminar. Follow-up instruction for all sophomores is provided through the history, English, and Science classes, as requested by classroom teachers.
