Gettysburg Elementary

The Gettysburg library is an integral part of our school. Not only is it home to thousands of books and resources for students, parents, and teachers, it also has two computer labs with class sets of laptops for student learning. The Gettysburg Parent Teacher Club has contributed greatly towards four mobile carts of laptops or Chrome Books teachers can check out for classroom use.

For more information contact our school librarian Starlene Finley.

Accelerated Reader is an optional reading program Gettysburg teachers can use in their classrooms. Teachers can have their students do Star Reading to find their reading levels. The students can then check out books at their reading level in the library. The books are color coded according to level making it faster and easier for students to check out books at their comfortable reading level. Once the student reads the book, he or she can take an AR quiz on classroom computers to earn points towards their grade level's reading goal.

Students are able to check out books, find book levels and take tests through the accelerated Reader link in Clever.
