Library Activities
The library sponsors one book fair in the fall and a Read-a-Thon in the spring. The proceeds from these fundraisers help to buy books and pay for special author visits and programs.
In addition, the library sponsors several voluntary reading promotion programs throughout the school year, such as Beanstack Challenges, the Spring Book Festival Reading Program (3rd – 5th), and the Texas 2x2 (K-2nd).
Student Checkout
Students in Kindergarten can check out one book (after the first 9 week grading period.) Students in the first grade may check out one book. Students in the second through fifth grade may check out two books. Students may not check out any books unless the previous ones are returned or renewed.
Checked out books will travel to and from school in labeled plastic ziploc bags. Ziploc bags will be provided for all students to protect the books from water spills, etc. If this bag is lost or damaged, a new ziploc bag will be issued. Please donate 2 gallon ziploc bags to the library! We will need plenty!
Overdue notices will be sent home periodically throughout the year. Please note that payment should ONLY be made if the book cannot be located or is damaged.
LCISD Family Selection Policy
Lamar CISD families are encouraged to monitor and adjust student selection of library materials based on their individual family values. Family expectations regarding library books checked out by a student should be discussed with the student by the guardian and reviewed as necessary to ensure the student understands their family expectations. Books may be returned to the library at any time if a student or parent objects to the content.
