Dhahran - School Report Question and Answers
Does the school have a library? How large is it? How updated are the books? Can students borrow books to read at home?
It has a large Learning Resource Center (LRC), shared with the high school and British school on the same campus. The LRC is a fantastic place, with about 7 full time staff who have a great interest in encouraging students' love of reading. There is a tech corner, a maker space and older students are able to use the library for hang out time. They have a great selection of books and add new ones throughout the year. They also organize 2 book sales a year, which is great, as Saudi Arabia has limited options for good-quality, good-priced English books. Students visit the library once a week as a class and can check out 1 to 3 books per week, depending on grade. Parents are also highly welcome to check out books. The library and its staff have been one of my favorite parts of the school! - Dec 2019
