The mission of the Grand Prairie ISD school library program is to ensure that students and staff are effective users of ideas and information enabling them to be literate life-long learners. This mission is accomplished by the school library staff, in collaboration with the school community:

  • By providing instruction to foster competence in acquiring and using information and ideas, and in evaluating information resources.
  • By stimulating interest in reading and appreciation of literature through group instruction and individual guidance.
  • By providing intellectual and physical access to materials in multiple formats; and
  • By working with other educators to design and carry out learning experiences to meet the needs of individual students.
