September was a busy month in the library. Beginning of school, Patriot Day, Constitution Day, Banned Books Week, and Hispanic Heritage Month have all been topics of books featured in the last 30 days. All of the new students, school wide and the Kindergarten students were added to our library database, so they can check out books this year. All students and faculty have access to the resources of the library.

JK-Grade 5 students come to the LS Library once a week to learn library skills, and exchange books.

At the end of Library class, JK students are allowed to select one book that are pre-selected just for them. These books are checked out and taken back to the classroom for the teachers to read aloud.

Grades K-5 use shelf markers and can select books based on their own interests. If I think the student has selected a book that they are not quite ready for, I discuss with teacher or send email to parent before letting it leave.

Each grade is allowed a maximum number of books checked out at one time. JK, through First Grade, 1; Second Grade, 2; Third Grade, 3; Fourth and Fifth Grade, 4.
