Absence does not excuse payment of fines. When an overdue item is returned or renewed, the fine stops. The fine may then be paid at a later date. All students earn points by reading books from our AR book list and passing tests taken on the Macintosh computers near the front door of the library or at computers around the building. Points assigned to each book by AR and are determined by the difficulty and length of the book.
Most tests consist of ten multiple choice questions and take from five to seven minutes to complete.
AR tests may be taken before and after school and during class periods with a pass from a teacher. The AR program operates on two levels. There will be a first place trophy and second and third place certificates given at each of the four academic levels in each grade. Trophies and certificates will be awarded at grade level awards assemblies at the end of the school year. Book reports for Language Arts classes.
