Do you need space to study, read, work,

or use a computer?  The LMC is open and

available for you to use daily from 7:10

a.m. - 3:10 p.m.  We ask that you enter

quietly and respect others also working

or reading.  


Students are required to have a pass to

work or read in the library before, after,

and during school hours.  Food and drink

are not allowed in the LMC.  Classes

​using the lab area or presentation area

have priority; however, students with a

pass may use a computer or table during

class, if available.


Teachers can reserve the computer lab

area (35 computers) or the presentation

area (seats 40) for class use.
