Policies and Discipline Plan

 

All students visit the library weekly for a story or library lesson.  Students in grades 1, 2, and 3 are allowed to visit the library daily using passes. 

 

    Students in Pre-K come to the library weekly for story time but do not check out books to take home.  Pre-K students will select books to keep in their classroom for the week beginning in January.

 

    Students in Kindergarten begin checking out books by the end of the first six weeks.  They are allowed to check out 1 book at a time for a period of 2 weeks.  However, they can make a new selection weekly if they have returned their library book from the previous week.   

 

    Students in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade are allowed to check out 2 books at a time for a period of 2 weeks. However,    they are allowed to return books throughout the week and select new titles.

 

    All students are responsible for bringing library materials back on time.  Due dates are stamped in the front of the book.  Students are not required to pay a fine for an overdue book.  However, they are expected to pay for the replacement of any lost or damaged books checked out in their name. 

 

    Good behavior is expected in the library so all students can experience the joy of reading.  Students will be praised for following directions and exhibiting prosocial behavior.  Classes earn gold coins for good behavior.  One class per week is awarded the Golden Gnome.  He visits the classroom for the week and has his picture taken with the students.  The picture is posted on the bulletin board across the hall from the library.
