The Highland Lakes Leadership Academy Library/Media Center mission is to teach students to be effective users of information, and to encourage and prepare students to be life-long learners.

This mission is accomplished by:

• providing instruction in information literacy
• providing intellectual and physical access to informational materials in a variety of formats and media
• stimulate an interest in reading, and in finding and using information and ideas
• promoting the use of the media center by students and faculty
• working with teachers to develop educational strategies to meet the information needs of students and to augment teaching
• supporting the school's curriculum and reading initiatives

Check with our Family and Community Liasion if you are interested in volunteering in the media center!

 Panthers' Den Makerspace
 

What's a makerspace?  It's a collaborative work space where students can create, invent, and explore with a variety of materials and gadgets.  The process is open-ended; no finished goal is necessary. Makerspaces incorporate imagination, creativity, engineering, problem solving, exploration, and just plain fun!
