    Circulation
    Children from kindergarten through the 8th grade may check out books as follows:
    • Kindergarten - 1 book for 1 week 
    • 1st Grade - 1 book for 2 week
    • 2nd - 3rd  Grade - 1 books for 2 weeks
    • 4th - 8th Grades - 2 books for 2 weeks
    Books may be renewed once if there are no holds on the title. Students are required to renew the book by the due date. Library privileges are suspended until the overdue book is returned, renewed or paid for if it was lost or damaged.

    It is suggested to students that books be kept in backpacks when not being read. This will allow students to have their books when it’s their day to visit the LMC and to protect them from harm. Please be mindful of water bottles placed in backpacks. This can quickly ruin books! Always use the outside holders for drinks.

    Please remember… students are responsible for the books they check out. If a book becomes damaged or lost the student will be required to pay for the book. The student’s check out privileges are suspended until damaged books are paid for or lost books are returned. The care of books helps maintain our library collection for all of our students.

    Finally, if parents would like to limit the number of books their child can check out they may do so by contacting Kristie Snell, Library Media Center Clerk, at 623-376-4313 or via e-mail.

    Accessing the Collection and Student Account from Home
    Students and parents can access the Highland Lakes collection from home by visiting Destiny. In addition to checking the availability of books and creating lists, students and parents can review a student’s account, including due dates of books on loan, overdue materials, and holds. Parents and students may log in via the button along the top right. Log in is the student's username and password. 
    Internet Usage
    Computers are available for student use during regularly scheduled class visits as well as for students on passes. They may be used for assigned class work, research, and testing. Students and parents/guardians must read and understand the Internet & E-Mail User Agreement and both must sign the Acknowledgements and Verifications Form before students are allowed to use the computers.
