Windsor High School Library
The mission of the Windsor High School Library is to encourage and promote life-long learning, literacy and independent inquiry. Our aim is that every student will: be supported by quality library services, collections, and programs; (2) meet the Vermont Framework of Learning Opportunities and Grade Expectation (GE) standards; and (3) achieve the American Association of School Librarians’ (AASL) Standards for the 21st-Century Learner within the context of curricular objectives. The library will supply access to materials in a variety of formats, provide instruction in the use of resources and promote appreciation of reading with the collaboration of educational staff.
