Library
PoliciesStudents should have their Agenda Book signed by a teacher if they are planning on visiting the library not during their scheduled class time. CirculationStudents may borrow books for 14 days and they are renewable. A fine of five cents a day will be charged for each day a student's book is late. Volunteers:The library is a wonderful place to volunteer! There is always much to do such as checking books in and out, assisting students in locating books, reading a book at storytime, or working at our Spring and Winter Scholastic Book Fairs!Book DonationsBook donations are always welcome. It is great way to add to our collection. |

Our Library has 16 computers which enables half a class to work on assignments or take AR tests. |

We open each morning at 7:20 for students to take AR tests. Parents are welcome to come and help their children select books. |
