Library Rules

We reserve the right to limit the number of students in the library due to class use, testing and noise considerations. Seating is limited to 4 students per table and on the gallery benches. Sitting on the floor is not permitted. Students may come to the library after school if they are staying after for sports, extra help, tutoring or a club meeting. Students who only need to do homework after school should go to the homework center in Room 508 -in the Annex.
