Most students have access to the Ellis media center on a daily basis. Primary (PreK-Kindergarten) students meet bi-weekly in the media center for storytime, a lesson, and book check in/out. Lower Elementary through Erdkinder students (1st-8th grades) are allowed to come to the media center individually or with a classmate for book check in/out, research, brain breaks, technology assistance, and much more!
