The Savannah-Chatham County Board of Education monitors Internet use at all of our schools with firewall screening of undesirable sites. Student use of the Internet at Hesse Elementary is also supervised by faculty members. It features students from all classes at Hesse in segments such as Grade Level News. Parents are invited to watch The Bear Connection in the media center and may send a VHS videotape to record the show for the family to watch at home. The media center staff at Hesse Elementary School consists of one media specialist and one media clerk.
Volunteers are an important part of our program and are always welcomed and appreciated.
Students may come to the media center to borrow books and conduct research with permission from their classroom teacher. Students must bring their library card to serve as their media center pass, as well as to enable them to borrow books. The loan period is one week. Students are not allowed to check out more books if they have overdue books. Students who have lost books and have not paid for them are not allowed to check out books until the matter is settled by the parent.
