Media |
| The focus of the lessons in the Media Center is to support
the skills being taught in the classroom at Overlook Elementary. |
| The goal of the Media Center Program at Overlook is to
increase awareness and usage of our school media center for both personal
reading and research. In addition, I am striving to increase student
usage of our county public library system. A school library club exists
to promote this goal. |
