Welcome to the KSES Library

Carpet Area

The KSES library is proudly named for Mrs. Dorris, a retired teacher and much admired former principal of our school.

The library is open daily from 7:15 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. for student and faculty use. The library is also one of the special area classes at KSES. Students attend library with their homeroom 1-2 days a week. Students have access to many books that meet their interests and learning needs. Also, they learn about important topics such as the organization of information, research, digital citizenship and book care. With a large collection of fiction and non-fiction materials, the library is proud to support and enhance the learning taking place in the classrooms throughout the building.
