• Students may check out books and other materials for two weeks. Teachers and staff may borrow books for four weeks.
• Books can be renewed at any time!
• Late items should be returned as soon as possible and late notices will be sent home to parents frequently.
• Parents will receive a bill for items over 21 days late. At this point the item is considered lost and there will be a charge of $20 per late item.

• Teachers and parents, please help your children find a safe place to keep their borrowed books so that they can be successful.
