Our cross-curricular projects, such as History as Story, create valuable connections between researching and writing which are utilized to grow creativity in writing and knowledge of research materials.

Library time at AOS Lower School consists of a variety of activities from story time, DEAR time, checking out books and CDs, and various other projects tied to classroom lessons. Our students in lower school learn about concepts important to literature, library and research skills during their visits. Fourth graders earn the responsibility of Shelf Sheriffs making sure books are placed back on the shelves in the proper place according to the Dewey Decimal System. The school in general is a community in which we all work together to take the best care of our things. The library is no exception. Our parents continue to be a big help in the library working with students to find just the right book, helping shelve books, and assisting with a variety of projects that occur throughout the year. The enrichment activities, variety of literature, and overall atmosphere make the AOS Lower School Library a wonderful experience.
