  • Media Center
​​NEW Academic Extension Program: The CKS Academic Extension program, which began during the 2019-2020 school year, provides students with academic challenges that extend beyond the standard curriculum. While students are selected using a broad set of criteria including teacher observations/input, academic performance, and standardized test scores, those who consistently display a "can-do attitude" and demonstrate an enthusiasm and passion for learning are often placed in the program as well. As the program continues to grow, we look forward to extending learning to students beyond the classroom. Project based learning and STEAM will be at the core of the curriculum. Our goal is to help facilitate independent learning for our CKS students.

Media   Center

​​"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn the more places you'll go."
       Dr. Seuss, I Can Read With My Eyes Shut!
The goal of a good school library program is to make students information literate: to teach them the skills needed to access information, in both print and non-print environments, in an age of burgeoning knowledge.

Kindergarten, pre-first, first and second grades access books from the Media Center weekly. Each class is read one or more stories appropriate to grade level. The Media Specialist teaches author, title, illustrator, publisher, checks for listening skills, general comprehension and instructs in library procedures, such as book care and making online book holds for checkout.

Library skills instruction is given to third, fourth and fifth grade weekly. All grades learn research skills in the course of research projects in various subjects across the curriculum. Our goal is to familiarize our students with the process of information retrieval so that they will be able to enter any library with confidence in their ability to locate information.

Destiny is the online patron access catalog which can be accessed on any computer in the school, as well as, from home. Destiny not only catalogs student books and faculty DVDs, but also gives access to ebooks on Destiny Discover and research websites through Webpath Express.

Students may access the following databases at school and at home: World Book Online, EBSCOhost, Brainpop, Brainpop Jr.,  TrueFlix and ScienceFlix. To enhance reading comprehension, Christ the King School uses the Accelerated Reader program with access to over 150,000 quizzes.
