Parent  Center

Come to the Media Center to visit our Parent Center!

  
             

Dear Parents,

            You are able to check out books and materials from our media center.  There are some policies which we want you to be familiar with, in order that we may have a successful year.  Check out will be limited to five books or educational materials per family.  Only one accelerated reader book per parent will be allowed due to the limited number of accelerated reader titles in the media center.  Please remember that all books are to be treated properly: do not write in the books, tear pages, remove barcodes or labels off books or allow them to get wet.  Books that are lost or damaged must be paid for.  However, if a book is paid for, but later found, the book will become the property of the parent and the money can not be returned.  We are no longer able to refund money if books are found due to internal auditing policies.  Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to seeing you soon.
