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.
