About Our Library
The Wade Thomas Library is open to all students—and parents, too! Each class has a scheduled weekly Library Time that includes a read-aloud story time. Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grades have fun learning about the Library and can check out books of their choosing throughout the year! Students from 3rd, 4th and 5th grades can check out books and they also learn library skills such as how to find books using the library catalog and conducting research. These skills will help them to be successful students even after they graduate from Wade Thomas. We also have a computer lab with 24 computers where 3rd- through 5th-graders learn about computers and technology with their teachers.
Our book collection includes over 10,000 volumes and we are always adding more to make sure students have the resources they need. The Birthday Book Club, which is run by the Wade Thomas Parents Association, is a fun way to help the library and celebrate a student’s birthday.
