Deputy Initiatives & Programs

Thanks for visiting the Deputy Learning Commons Page!

Students and legos in the Learning Commons

- Get students excited about the library space and learning.
- Give students opportunities to work on engaging tasks.
- Provide spaces to work collaboratively, think critically and creatively.

Transition to a place where students DO stuff, not simply a place where students GET stuff!

Each visit to the Learning Commons provides a different learning environment for students to explore technology, books, experiments, and projects. Students work together to creatively solve problems and learn how to work together in small groups to discover one another's strengths and identify opportunities for development. We invite you to stay in touch with us! Feel free to browse our monthly, interactive newsletters linked below.

2017 - 2018 School Year

Learning Commons projects are created and completed during Learning Commons class time at school. Occasionally, staff may request donations of recyclable materials or found objects. No request will ever be made for students or parents to purchase materials for projects. Thanks for your support!

PLTW Launch is designed for students in Kindergarten through Grade 5 and compliments middle and high school course offerings. "Students use structured approaches, like the engineering design process, and employ critical thinking. They apply Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) knowledge, skills, and habits of mind, learning that it is OK to take risks and make mistakes. As teachers and students learn and discover together, education becomes far more engaging" (PLTW Launch website).
