Schedule
Procedures
Each student in Kindergarten is allowed 1 book for checkout; each student in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade is allowed 3 books for checkout. Books must be returned every week. If students do not return their books on time, they are considered overdue. Overdue notices will be sent to the classroom weekly. If a book is lost or damaged beyond repair, the student will be asked to pay for the book.
Students are allowed to renew books by returning them to the library with a "renew" ticket the morning of their LRC book check out time. They are also allowed to put books on hold if they are not available for check out. As soon as the book is returned the librarians will notify the student that the book is available.
In addition to their regularly scheduled classroom check out times, students are always welcome to visit the LRC to return and check out books during normal school hours!
