Library's Mission:

The DTSMA Library seeks to nurture a love of reading and to create a community of lifelong learners by instilling in our students the need to become independent users of the library.  In working with the classroom teachers, it is our goal to play an integral role in helping students to achieve excellence in education by supporting the Magnet Program and STEM Academy.
