Parent Resources
We have a parent collection funded by our PTA. Parents may use their children's cards to check out books.
Due Dates
Books are due two weeks from checkout. Magazines are due back in one week.
Replacing Lost Or Damaged Items
We encourage all of our students to use the library and promote good stewardship of our books. If books are damaged or lost, students are required to pay for a replacement copy.
Parents may decide to replace a copy of a book by purchasing another book. Please email Ms. Szvetitz or Ms. Wagner if you would prefer this option for lost or damaged books.
