From the library
We had fun talking about Terrible Two on Thursday during our 5th Grade Book Club! Next up is Esparanza Rising by Pam Munoz Ryan on February 17. Get your books now!
This is a great time of the year to remind all of our Sampson families about our library book policies. When a book is lost, we do not ask for payment right away. A note is sent home so the grown-ups at home are aware of the lost book. A signature is required saying the student will look for the book and if it is not found by May, the book will be paid for by the family. When the signed note is returned, students can check out two books again. Money for the lost book will be accepted in May, not the actual book, because of the type of library books purchased. In many scenarios, the book is found prior to May, so then that works perfectly!
Damaged books require payment at the time of damage. Please remember to keep those water bottles away from Chromebooks and library books!
Thanks for helping us to take care of our library!
