Need a break?
Need a quick, quiet break to reset your brain? Stop by the library and take a peek at the Brain Break Cart! It's stocked with quiet activities like Sudoku, coloring pages, puzzles & calm partner games designed to give your brain a rest before you jump back into work.
🧠How to use an activity from the cart:
- Check Out Required: You must use your ID badge to check out an activity from the library desk.
- ID Exchange: Your ID badge will be held at the desk until you return the activity.
- Vibe Check: Keep the noise level low and chill. Use the activities quietly so everyone can focus and relax.
Stop by the library next time you need a quick mental breather!
See the library staff if you have any questions!

What books do I have checked out?
Lost or damaged books?
Did you lose or damage your library book?
There are no fines for late books. Payment for lost or damaged library books goes through SchoolPay (no cash or checks). Once students have paid, they can email me a copy of their receipt or bring in a paper copy to have the fine removed.
