Media Center

Welcome to the West Newton Media Center!

The West Newton Media Center is an important part of the instructional program at our school. As the MSD of Decatur Township moves toward a Digital Transformation, our Media Center program is evolving beyond the traditional library to include ebooks, digital resources, research instruction, and a Maker Space.

All of our elementary media centers in Decatur Township teach Indiana's Computer Science curriculum.  This curriculum includes instruction on how to use digital tools such as presentation software, digital citizenship, which is ethical considerations in the use of technology, coding through Project Lead the Way, and much more.

Our online library catalog, Destiny, provides access to print books, ebooks, and electronic resources that align with our school curriculum. These resources are used throughout our school to promote teaching and learning. In addition, we have included some other great electronic resources on this webpage.
