Our hope is that all children will love books, reading and the library. 

The SCES library is an instructional library.  We help to provide children with print and non-print resources that correlate to library and classroom instruction.  As our society has become so technologically based, it is most important for children to know how and where to easily find the answers to questions.  We strive to acquire and promote many types and levels of materials to accommodate all of our learners.  We also would like to help students develop a life long love of reading.

Library Check Out and Policies

Check Out

Students in kindergarten check out one book each week during their scheduled library time.

Students in first and second grade will check out two books every week.

Students in grades three, four and five will check out three books every week.

Policies

No one is ever charged a fee for overdue books.  Books that are lost or damaged are to be paid for with a check made out to Sycolin Creek Elementary.  Lost and damaged books will be replaced ASAP.  If lost books that have been paid for are found, money will be returned, as long as the book has not already been replaced.

If a student has an overdue book it will come up on our computer as a block.  The student will not be able to check out any more books until the overdue one is returned.  With the return of the book, the computer will automatically remove the block.
