Library

 

Hayward High School's library is open on weekdays from 8:30AM to 5PM. Students may visit the library during nutrition, lunch and after school.  Students who come to the library during class time should obtain permission from their teacher and are required to sign in on the laptop at the front desk when they enter.

 The library is a communal space that reflects our diverse school community.  There are books and artwork depicting varied ethnicities, cultures, sexual orientations, genders, (dis)abilities, religions, family configurations and socioeconmic statuses.  Recommended fiction, biographies / memoirs, poetry, plays, short story / essay collections and graphic novels are always on display.  The purpose of Hayward High's library is to lend books to students / staff, offer access to reference resources and provide computer / printing services.  The library also serves as a venue for programs.  Cocurricular events and guest speaker presentations take place here.  Students are encouraged to come to the library to study, read, attend functions, use technology or relax.
