Welcome to Our Library!

Mrs. Dottie McKinnon Library Media Specialist dmckinnon@mcps.org

  Students coming to the Falling Branch Elementary library are encouraged to explore the exciting world of books and reading.  They are taught that the library is the place where they can find great books to read as well as answers to questions.  All classes at FBE have a scheduled one half hour class each week, and the library is open before and after school for book exchange.  During the class times, books are shared and skills on how to use the library are taught. Teachers may schedule other times in the library, too.  Library computers are available throughout the day for student and teacher use.
