Students are allowed to check out up to three books at a time for a period of two weeks. A Date Due card is placed in the back of each book that is checked out. Students may turn books in at any time, either before school, between classes, at lunch, after school, or with their English class. Once books become overdue, a fine of 5 cents a day will begin to acrue. Students will not be able to check out new items if their library record indicates an overdue book, fine, or lost book charge. Replacement costs will be charged for any lost or damaged items. A coin operated copy machine is located in the library. Copies cost 10 cents per page. We do not have a color copier.

The Lone Star Reading Contest is composed of books chosen from the The Texas Lone Star Reading List. This is a recommended reading list developed by public and school librarians from the Young Adult Round Table. The purpose of the list is to encourage students in grades 6,7, and 8 to explore a variety of current books and genres. After reading one of the books, students can come by the library and take a short quiz. When five quizzes are passed, the student will win a coupon for an ice cream treat. When 10 quizzes are passed, the student will win one free book from the spring semester Scholastic Book Fair. When 15 quizzes are passed, the student will win the grand prize - a $25 gift card to the spring semester Scholastic Book Fair! An annotated list of the Lone Star books is available on this webpage and in the library for students.

Thanks to all who participated in our fall book fair this year. You made it quite a success! We appreciate your support! Our next Scholastic Book Fair will be held in May. See you at the next book fair!!!
