Student Checkout:
Students will check out when they visit with their class during specials rotation or during an independent visit before/after school.
Overdues and Lost/Damaged Books:
All student books are checked out for two weeks at a time, and may be renewed. We never assign fees for late books. Students are billed for damaged or lost books, but only for the replacement cost. (Please note: we do not accept books from Amazon, etc., in lieu of replacement costs, as we purchase specially reinforced copies from an approved library vendor.)
Book donations:
We do not accept used or donated books. Have books to donate? Reach out to your child's classroom teacher or to your favorite charitable organization. They may know someone who can use them.
We look forward to nurturing your child's love of reading!
