Our mission is to provide an inviting, dynamic learning environment and services that empowers teaching, prompts curiosity, promotes literacy, and enriches our district’s curriculum.

We aspire for our students to be critical thinkers, lifelong learners, ethical users of information and enthusiastic readers. 

​

 CHECK-OUT:

*Students may visit the library at any time during the day as long as they have their teacher's permission and a library pass. 

*Students may check out up to 3 library books at a time. They will be checked out for 3 weeks but may be renewed if the students need additional time. 

LOST OR DAMAGED MATERIALS:

* If a book has been out excessively long, it will be declared lost.  Students will not be able to check-out another book until the lost book is either returned or paid for.  If a book is paid for, and then found within the same school year in good condition, the money will be refunded to the parent.  Any books damaged by water, coloring, food, extremely ripped pages, dog/animal bites, etc... will be the responsibility of the student's parents to pay for.  We ask that you pay with a check or the exact amount in cash as we do not have cash on hand to make change.

* Please DO NOT attempt to replace a lost book yourself.  The majority of our hardback books are library bound.  This means they are special ordered with more durable covers for multi-use check-outs.  Books bought from Amazon and other discount retailers often do not offer library bound editions and do not come processed for the library.  These books are for home use only, and will not withstand the multiple check-outs that our students will put them through.  Our books are also ordered pre-processed.  This means they come with our library barcodes attached as well as spine labels and library records; this is an additional cost for us but allows us to get books onto the shelves faster for our patrons.  

​***All students have learned about the care and maintenance of books during library orientation, and they should be responsible for keeping them in good condition while in their home.  Book care videos are available on the Student Library Hub in Google Classroom.
