Middlebury Elementary School

All children in the school meet in weekly classes with the librarian. During those classes and at other times during the day, children explore the world of ideas through literature and media. The librarian and classroom teacher work closely in teaching children to locate, analyze, and synthesize information. By grade five, students are able to develop original research reports.

The Library Media Center is open to every child in the school. Students may visit the library any time the classroom teacher gives permission. This means that as soon as a library book has been read, the child may return it and choose another.
