About Our Media Center
The Rosemont Media Center, led by Ms. Townsend, is a vibrant hub of reading, creativity, and exploration for all students. Our goal is to nurture a love of literacy while providing engaging opportunities for students to grow as thinkers, collaborators, and leaders.
Students visit the Media Center for book checkout, read‑alouds, research, and lessons that build strong reading and information‑literacy skills. Beyond daily access to books, our Media Center offers a variety of enrichment programs that make reading exciting and meaningful.
