Welcome to the Avalon Middle School Media Center!

Avalon Middle School's Media Center is the hub of the school where students learn to research, to create in Makerspaces, and to develop a love of reading.

The Media Center is open in the mornings before school M, W, & F mornings from 8:35 - 9:05 a.m. During this time, students are able to read, check out books, or participate in Makerspace activities.

Additionally, ELA classes visit the Media Center every other week for the opportunity to check out books.

Limited My student may check out books from the library media center, but there is content that that I would like my student to not have access to in the library media center including the classroom library.
