Media Center

Welcome to Atkinson Elementary School's Library/Media Center!

Our school media center is a vital resource for both students and staff. It offers access to a wide range of books, digital tools, and learning materials that support classroom instruction and encourage independent exploration. Regular visits to the media center help nurture your child’s love of reading, boost research skills, and develop critical thinking.

We believe that engaging with the media center is key to your child’s academic growth and lifelong learning. Encouraging your child to use this resource will enrich their educational experience and build important skills for the future.

Thank you for partnering with us to support your child’s learning journey!

Accelerated Reader

Accelerated Reader (AR) is a program designed to help students improve their reading skills by encouraging them to read books at their appropriate level and take quizzes to test their comprehension. As students progress, they earn points and set goals to stay motivated. Parents can support their child by encouraging daily reading, discussing books together, and celebrating achievements. By working together, we can foster a lifelong love for reading and help students become confident, successful readers!
