Library Procedures
All students come to the library each week for a lesson and to check out books.
How many books can I check out?
Kindergarten students check out one book at a time. 1st through 5th graders check out two books at a time.
How long can I keep my books for?
The loan period bor books is two weeks. After two weeks books must be returned or renewed.
Do I need to pay for my books?
We do not charge overdue fines, however, we do charge for lost and damaged books.
**Water bottles often leak and should not be placed inside the backpack next to library books.**
Our books are new! Please help your child read with clean hands, keep books away from food, drinks, small children, and pets. Also, students should be encouraged to use a bookmark to hold their place in a book.
