Book Selection

Our district media program aims to teach students to choose reading materials that meet their informational and recreational needs. We encourage and guide students toward books appropriate to their developoment and reading levels, but ultimately, it is the individual student who selects what to check out. If you are concerned that your student is not choosing appropriate reading material, please contact Ms. Larson. She is happy to meet with families before or after school for a personalized book "consultation." Please note that you can verify the books your student has checked out by using your student's username and password in Destiny Quest or by checking Infinite Campus.

Book Return

Students are responsible for the timely return of any items checked out in their names. A secure book drop is located at the media center circulation desk. Items may be put there at any time during building hours. 

Overdue Items

Notices will be sent home weekly beginning the fourth week of school. If you student receives an overdue notice and you believe the item has been returned, please have your student ask us to check the shelves again. You can also call or email Ms. Larson with a request to check the library shelves for the missing book.

Lost and Damaged Books

Students who have lost or damaged a book will be expected to pay the item's replacement cost. Many of our books are specially bound for library use, so please contact Ms. Larson before purchasing a replacement copy. Cash for the replacement cost, found on the overdue notice, can be brought to the school office or media center. Payment can also be made via Infinite Campus.
