LIBRARY MEDIA CENTER – Information from the Student Handbook
Mrs. Barrett is our library media specialist, and the library media assistant is Mrs. Robinson.
During a regular class period, reading or research may be done in the library with a pass from a teacher. Students are also welcome to visit the library and check out books throughout the day. The library is usually available from 7:15 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. on school days.
The following are expectations for checking out materials from the LMC:
- A limit of three books per student may be checked out for up to three weeks at a time.
- A student may renew a book by bringing it to the library and asking for an extension.
- Books are expected to be returned or renewed on time. If a book is lost or damaged beyond repair, students must pay the replacement cost of the book through Parent Pay Online.
- Overdue notices will be sent out each week via email to both the student and the parents.
- When checking out a book, students must know their student ID number.
- Never checkout materials for someone else.
- Always return your books to the library book return cart or use the book return slot in the hallway. Never put the book back on the shelf.
