Overdues
When a student has an overdue book, she or he will be given a letter to bring home. This letter is just a reminder to students and parents that the overdue book needs to be sent back to school as soon as possible, as students with overdue books will not be allowed to sign out new books.
Lost and Damaged Books
If a book is missing for one month or more, or if it is returned in an irreparably damaged state, a fine letter with the replacement cost of the book will be sent home. As an alternative to a fine, we will accept a different book in lieu of the one that is lost or damaged.
