About the king's christian school libraries
tkcs_libraries
TKCS libraries provide instruction in research skills, database use, digital citizenship, and the ethical use of information.
We provide one-on-one student assistance in locating reliable sources, using technology and software, and producing MLA-compliant assignments.
We work with our classroom teachers to co- plan and co-grade assignments, to secure resources for student projects, and to infuse curriculum with technology.
Our physical library is fully accessible during the school day with extended hours before and after school. Our virtual library is open 24/7 with curated digital resources for the entire school family as well as access to our research databases and online catalog, while Library Chat gives students near continuous access to a librarian.
Did we mention books? We maintain a wide collection of reading materials, both Christian and secular, that can be borrowed by our students, our faculty, and our parents. Stop in anytime to activate your account!
OUR HOURS
The middle school/high school library opens at 7:30 a.m. and remains open until 3:30 p.m. most school days.

No pass is required before and after school or during lunch.

The elementary library is open to students in PreK through grade 5 on a fixed weekly schedule.
