    Library Procedures:

    All students may visit the library everyday between the hours of 7:30am and 2:00pm.  

    Students in grade K-1 may check out one book a day.
    Students in grade 2 - 4 may check out up to two books a day.
    Students in grade 5 may check out up to three books a day.

     

    Technology Procedures:

    Once a student returns a parent signed Student Device Agreement the Media Coordinator will check out a device to that student.  If the technology fee, ($20 for the 21-22 school year), is paid then the student may travel home with that device as well. If a device is damaged please contact your child's teacher first.  If a repair is needed we will contact the technology department for an evaluation. 

    As stated in the Student Device Agreement, all devices and chargers must be returned at the end of the school year.
