OVERDUE BOOKS AND FINES
Fines for late books are 25 cents per school day. There are two parts
to the overdue process: return the book AND pay the fine. Fine money
should always be in an envelope with the child's name on it. Please do
not tape money to the book. Occasionally a book will have been returned
and mis-filed. If a student receives an overdue/fine notice in error,
please come immediately to the library and every effort will be made to
locate the book. Students who lend their checked-out book to another
student are still responsible for that book if it is returned late or
is lost. First graders may check out one book. Once that book is late,
they may not check out another book until they return the first one and
pay the fine. Second graders may check out two books, and third through
8th graders may check out three books. If one book is returned on time
they may check out a second book. Once there is a fine owed, no more
books may be checked out until the fine is paid.
Overdue and fine notices are handed out regularly. Conduct slips are
given after several overdue or fine notices have been handed out and
the student has made no attempt to take care of their overdue book or
fine. REPORT CARDS are not distributed to students until all overdue
books are returned, overdue fines are paid, and lost book costs are
paid.
