English teachers:
*Class book renewals need to occur Monday through Thursday. Please send box/crate on the due date or before, or better yet, have your students be responsible for keeping up with the due date/renewing of their own books. While students are not fined within 3 days past the due date, they are charged the entire fine beyond that date. 
*If you send overdue books (3 days after due date stamped in book) in a crate for renewal, we will return those books to the shelves.
*PLEASE stress to your students that book renewals are their responsibility. Your sending them in a crate for renewal is a courtesy you are providing.
*Please, no more than 3 renewals per book per student--that's 12 weeks of having a book!
*Each Friday is the day reserved for the media specialists to take care of curriculum, planning, technology/laptops, library PLC's, processing new books, book displays/bulletin boards, etc.
