YACP at MCMS 

MCMS is participating in the International Reading Association's Young Adults' Choices Project this year. 7th and 8th graders with parent permission will read and score as many new YACP books as possible. Their scores, along with those from students across the nation,will be totaled. The books with the highest scores will be included on the 2012 Young Adults' Choices list published by the IRA. This program is completely voluntary. Voting is done in the media center. One vote per student per book!



 

Welcome to the Mossy Creek Middle School Media Center


MCMS media center pays a yearly Student Access Fee that allows our students access to over 40,000 RC tests.The above link connects to the Scholastic Reading Counts e-catalog, searchable by title and author,which gives lexile and test point value information.


The Mossy Creek Middle School Media Center Program is an integral part of the school's total instructional program. Our philosophy is built around three main beliefs. First, we believe that our students need instruction in information literacy skills so that they can efficiently access, use, and communicate the ever-increasing information available in our world today. Second, we believe that, because students who like to read will read, it is important to help students develop a love of reading. Third, we believe that the media center collection should support the curriculum and instructional program of the school.
