Students in Kindergarten and 1st grade check out (1) book each week, and leave their books at school. Second-Fifth grade students are allowed to check out (2) books. Books must be returned each week on library day in order to check out new books. If a student forgets their book, they are able to put a book on hold in the library and have until Friday to bring their forgotten book to exchange.
