Library

Through your student's CLEVER account or our district's homepage, there is 24/7 access to a vast number of virtual resources such as: Destiny- our web-based library catalog, and a variety of databased and credible websites that can help your student complete homework, conduct research, practice skills, or explore information. 

One great aspect about these resources is that you know your student is using valid, accurate, reliable, and authoratative resources that have been selected to complement curriculum as well as provide opportunities to explore various interests. 

Your student may check out two books at a time. Students may get new library books when they have returned previously checked out books. Students have a weekly library class and can visit the library during homeroom to exchange books. 

Please encourage your student to return or renew their library books either during class or homeroom. 

Students with lost or damaged books will have their library privilege limited or suspended until the obligation for the book(s) is met. This also may include but is not limited to participation in extracurricular paid school activities until the obligation for the book(s) is met.

Our students learn about Library Citizenship at the beginning of each school year. Characteristics that show good Library Citizenship include:

• Returning books on time
• Returning books in good condition
• Storing library books in a safe place

By asking students to return their library books in good condition, we are teaching them to be responsible library citizens. Notices will be sent home periodically to indicate overdue, lost, or damaged books.
