Mission: The mission of the United ISD‘s school libraries is for its students to reflect the diversity of groups in becoming effective global learners and users of today’s information resources in its varied formats.  The Clark Elementary Library promotes literacy in all its formats creating a “student centered library media program that is based on three central ideas: collaboration, leadership, and technology”.  The library will serve its community by enabling students to achieve their potential and fully participate in society as active information users and lifelong learners. The library program will foster creativity by allowing its users to produce new information and create products and presentations that communicate ideas effectively, efficiently and ethically.  By supporting the school curriculum of United Independent School District, the Clark Elementary library will provide a thriving learning environment that stimulates the intellect through scholarly observations that spark creativity.
