Media Center

The Edward J. DeBartolo Family Center for Media and Technology at St. Lawrence opened in the fall of 2007.  The center has two conference rooms, one computer lab with a seating capacity of thirty two students and one STREAM lab.  The labs can be opened to accommodate up to sixty students. Students in Kindergarten through Eighth grade are taught Information Literacy Skills through a research based media program that utilizes a process model of inquiry to explore both print and non-print sources.  The media specialist and one assistant nurture the joy of reading through story time presentations and book talks.  The print collection houses 15,000 items.  St.  Lawrence students are required to obtain a public library card.  The students are taught how to access online library resources at the county and state level during media classes.
