Grandview Public School

**UPDATED** 

Beginning now in the 2024-2025 school year, and for the forseable future, students will not be able to check out or renew books if there is still one overdue. These overdue books must be turned in or paid for before the student is allowed to check out or renew any book(s). For example, a student might have three books checked out, one of which is overdue. The computer will not allow any book(s) to be checked out or renewed until that one overdue book is returned or the fee is paid. It’s becoming an inconvenience to the office staff and myself when they are trying to help the students, but then have to come get me out of my class to try to fix this for the student. Students need to be more responsible for the books they have borrowed from the school. I try to keep the fees reasonable, and I send replacement costs based off of prices found on Amazon, versus ordering from one of my school book vendors, which can get pricey. 

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
