Students in the Library

Students come to the library on a weekly schedule and at other times designated by their teacher. 
 

Students are encouraged to check out one book to read independently and another book of their choice.

​

Students are encouraged to demonstrate responsibility by returning or renewing books on time and exercising proper care of library materials.  Checkouts are for 2 weeks. A renewal period is available for older students with longer books being used for classroom projects and reports.

​

Lost books should be reported to the librarian. Arrangements will be made for the student to continue using library books while searching for the lost book. If a book is not found by the end of school, a notice of the cost of the book will be sent home. Paying for lost books will clear student records for the district.
 

Parents are also welcome to visit the library before and after school to check out books to read with your children.
