Media Center
Our Vision:
Our vision is to provide a comprehensive media program which fosters a love of books and reading while also instilling in students 21st Century skills to be effective users, producers and communicators of ideas and information.
Mrs. Goodrich, Media Specialist and Mrs. Newman, Media Assistant, are here to help you find a “just right” book, locate an obscure fact about your favorite animal, use online resources to find information, showcase Black-Eyed Susan nominees or to recommend a new book or series.
The BHES Library Media Center houses a collection of about 11,000 books, DVD’s, CD-ROMS, videotapes, audiotapes, and more! The Media Center is open to students from 8:45 – 3:05 each school day. The circulation period for student books is one week. Most books may be renewed after the one-week loan period.
Students are encouraged to return a book and check-out a new one before scheduled book exchange times.
Our reading incentive program “Get Fired Up For Reading” allows students to “earn” a dragon scale for either the number of books or pages read. In less than a month that the program has been in place, we are rapidly approaching having read almost 1100 books!
