Reminder: Lost Library Books
As we get
closer to the end of the school year, we ask that all parents help their
children find any lost Pine Grove library books at home. If lost books are not found by the middle of
June, the school will be asking parents for a reimbursement for the replacement
of the lost book.
Thank you also to all the students who
have diligently returned their library books in good condition. Borrowing
library books, respecting the rules of returning books and paying for lost or
damaged books is a huge student responsibility. Thank you for keeping our
books safe and for returning them so others can use them in the future!
Families are reminded that if any
library books are found during the summer they are to be returned to the
library in September. If you have kindly paid for a lost book and you
find it during the summer, we will gladly return your money once the
book is returned to us.
