Library book policies
Library book policies
Students may check out up to two books at a time and all books are due four weeks from the day they are checked out. If there is a school holiday or closure that affects the due date, the new due date is the following week on the day of their scheduled class time.
Teachers may use their discretion as to whether library books may be taken home. Typically, grades TK through third keep their library books in the classroom, while fourth and fifth graders are allowed to take their books home.
Books may be returned at any time during library hours to the Library Technician, or to the office if the library is closed.
Please make a habit of returning your books on time, as there may be other students who are waiting to check them out. If no one is waiting, you may renew your check-out if you choose.
