For Parents

 
September 2007

My name is Miss Grimmett, and I will be your child’s school librarian.  
I would like to welcome you and your child to our library / media center.  
Your child will be coming to the media center every week.  Please encourage 
your child to take out and read the wonderful books found in our 
collection.  

Each student has a library card, which is kept in the media center. They 
will use this card to check out their books each week:
•   Students in K - 1st grade are allowed to check out (1) book per week.  
•   Students in 2nd grade may take 2 books for two weeks.  
•   Students in grades 3-5 make take 2 books or 2 magazines OR 1 book 
    and 1 magazine for two weeks.

Every student may renew his or her book for one more borrowing period, 
unless someone has put it on reserve. There are no fines for overdue books, 
although students with overdue material cannot take out books until the 
overdue item is returned.  Fines are only issued if the item is lost or 
damaged.  

Our media center has a variety of automated resources and our computer lab 
is situated next door.  Your child will have many opportunities to visit the 
computer lab throughout the year.  Grades 3-5 will be issued a login and 
will create their own passwords.  Each student must sign an Acceptable Use 
Policy (AUP) card in order to use lab resources.  This card is kept on file 
in the lab. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. 

					Sincerely,
							
				        Miss Grimmett
