Fardad Family Library and Collaboration Center

The school maintains a library that supports the total educational program. Students are introduced to the library and instructed on the ways to make its resources a valuable part of their education.

Library Computers

Students are expected to come to school with their charged BYOD devices and chargers each day. If there is an occasion where a student forgets their device at home, students are allowed to check out library computers before school, during break, and at lunch. If there is an unforeseen emergency in the classroom, students will only be allowed to leave class to check out a library computer during the first ten minutes of the class period. A teacher pass is required. Students are allowed a total of 20 checkouts of library loaner computers for the entire school year. Students are accountable for returning items borrowed from the school in the same condition they received them in. Please refer to the BYOD Technology Handbook for more information.

Library Printing

Students are able to print ONLY before and after school, during break, and at lunch. No students will be allowed to print assignments during class time. Students will pay for printing using their OneCard.

Library Hours

Monday-Friday 7:30am-3:30pm The library may be closed periodically throughout the school day for meetings, classes, and advisory.

MS Collins Café II

The café is a technology free zone from the hours of 8:00am-2:45pm to promote student engagement with one another. If students need to use technology during this time for academic purposes, the library is available. Gaming is not permitted during lunch or break. It is a privilege to have a café on our campus. Students are expected to pick up after themselves and display appropriate behavior while enjoying this privilege. In addition, students are expected to pick up after themselves when eating on the benches outside. No food is allowed on athletic fields, courts, or in the pods.

Oaks Christian does not allow outside companies (Doordash, UberEats, Postmates, etc.) to deliver food to our students on campus. Parents must bring lunch into school.

OneCards

OneCards are used for purchasing breakfast, lunch, printing, and purchases for the campus store. One-Cards are the only way to make purchases. Students must carry their OneCards all the time. You can register and add funds to your OneCard through AXIS Resources. If you have any trouble with your OneCard, please contact Monique Lynn.

The lockers should be kept neat and treated properly.
