WELCOME TO THE CKCS LIBRARY
Library Information
Thank you for visiting the library section of the CKCS webpage. This is my first
year as the school librarian at Christ the King, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be here! All
students come to the library once a week as a class to checkout books, read, listen to a story, do library research using
text and computer resources, and/or work on projects. It is a beautiful facility with approximately
10,000 books purchased to enhance the curriculum and foster a love of reading.
The bookfair is tentatively scheduled for the Week of November 29th right after
we get back from the Thanksgiving holidays. Please remember that this important fundraiser will be a great
place to buy Christmas gifts.
At
CKCS we utilize the Accelerated Reader program to promote and encourage reading. The minimum points required
for Accelerated Reading are determined by the classroom teacher. The library acknowledges the efforts of
students who read and test on far more than the minimum with the Top Reader Awards (grades 3-8) and Outstanding Reader Awards
(grades 1-2) as detailed on this webpage. Please email me at library@ctheking.org if you have any questions about our library or the Accelerated Reader program.
God Bless,
Mrs.
Emily Coate
