About Us

welcome to tkcs libraries!

Elementary library

TKCS Libraries exist to provide reading materials that support the curriculum and develop literacy skills and Christian character, tools for effective research, and instruction in information and digital literacy. Our libraries serve our students, parents, and staff. All reading materials are selected based upon a written collection development policy that is based on biblical principles. Enrolled families may obtain a copy of our collection development policy upon request. Email lscaffidi@tkcs.org.

The Middle School/High School Library is open from 7:30 a.m. to approximately 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday whenever school is in session. The library contains thousands of print and audiovisual items, and is supplemented by more than 20 electronic databases to support the curriculum and research. Intel Core i5 7th gen. desktop computers are available for student use before and after school as well as during study halls and lunch.

Parents, did you know that the Middle School/High School library is available for your use, also? It is the mission of TKCS libraries to serve our entire school family, including you, our parents. We have a wonderful collection of Christian reading materials, including Bible commentaries and concordances as well as some of the latest works of popular Christian authors. Please stop in whenever you are available and we will be happy to show you our collection. And don’t forget to check out this library website and the many interesting resources it contains!

The Elementary Library serves our youngest students, grades Pre-K through 5th. Every class visits the elementary library on a weekly basis. The students learn age-appropriate research methods and are exposed to a variety of genres of literature. Children in Kindergarten through 5th Grade may check out books each week.

TKCS Libraries are supported in part through several fundraising initiatives. Each year, the Elementary Library hosts a Scholastic Book Fair that is open to the entire school. Parents are welcome to participate in decorating and staffing. A webpage is available for the Book Fair several weeks before the event and will be posted on this website.

TKCS Libraries also have a Birthday Book program that accepts donations of books in honor of a special person’s birthday. All books accepted for donation under this program will carry a dedication plate inside the front cover with the names of the donor along with a special message to the person being honored. There is a Wish List for both the elementary and MS/HS libraries. Access the library Wish List hereAll donated books should be in hardback format and in new or like new condition. We hope you will consider participating in this special way of celebrating your student’s birthday!
