HMS Media Center

Media Coordinator: Jeanna Austin (jeanna.austin@cravenk12.org)

The mission of the HMS library program is to create and sustain an environment that ensures students and staff become effective users and creators of ideas and information. All are empowered to be critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, skillful researchers, and ethical users of information through providing leadership, instruction, and access to materials.

The vision of the HMS school library program is built by professionals who model leadership and best practice for the school community. The library media center seeks to create a 21st-century environment that promotes collaboration among members of the learning community and encourages learners to be independent lifelong users and producers of ideas and information. It strives to provide flexible and equitable access as the center of collaborative learning that produces creative students who have an appreciation of literature, critical thinking skills, and a respect for others and self.
