Library protocol

The goal of library classes is to encourage students to love reading and to gain independence in the use of the library space and materials.

Students will also become familiar with various authors and develop some ability to select reading material at their level, which they enjoy.

Students can checkout books during library class, but may also come any time throughout the day as allowed by the teacher.

Each study hall will be provided with the number of students they are allowed to send to the library at the beginning of each semester. Students will not be admitted without a pass. Students with pre-signed passes should be given preference; pre-signed passes are given by the librarian or a teacher requiring the use of library materials.

If students want to check out a book and return to study hall, they do not need to be included in the number coming from study hall, but can be put on their own pass.

If you would like to send students to the library from a class, not a study hall, more than one student should not be sent unless you call to be sure there is space for them.
