• The District has agreed to fund district wide access to the EBSCO Database this year. The package we have includes a range of resources for research, from elementary school level through high school, as well as professional educator resources. We now have access to thousands of e-books as well. The best part is that the students will be able to access this from any computer on or off campus.

    From off-site computers, the link is . Or you can click on the EBSCOhost image above. Each school site has its own user ID and password information. Please call the site librarian for login information.

    Please encourage your student to explore this rich resource. Since this is the research database used in most colleges this is a great opportunity for our students to get comfortable with this interface. 

    Some features that will be useful to our high school students are:
