Renew or Return Overdue Library Books

The start of the New Year is a great time to check your locker and at home for any overdue library books. We do not have late fees, but if your library books are lost you will be charged the replacement cost at the end of the school year. Check the due date slip found inside on the last page of your book. The most recent date is when your book is due.


Check your My Info section in Destiny to see if you have any overdue books or ask Mrs. Gee.
