LATE BOOKS NOW = DETENTION

ATTENTION STUDENTS

LATE BOOKS NOW = DETENTION!

Those students who do not turn in their books will now be serving detention as well as paying a fine for the late book. So beware, Mrs. Tucker’s watchful eye is on the lookout for those students who do not turn in their books on time. Mr. Barnett and Mrs. Tucker would rather all students be responsible enough to turn in or renew their books on time.

For those of you who are not aware, you can renew your books for up to six weeks. However, you must — YOU MUST — renew them on or before the two week check out time is up. Renewing your books on a regular basis will help you avoid fines and detention.
