The Bakersville School library serves all students, staff, and parents of the school. Within the library, there is a Parent Information center with literacy activities, parenting books, and community resource information. Our Teacher Resource center is equipped with various tools, books, and magazines for professional development as well as student activities. The general collection, primarily used by students, currently has over 10,000 volumes of fiction, non-fiction, reference, magazines, and everybody books for all ages.

 

Mrs. Fox and I are looking forward to an exciting school year sharing our love of reading and books with your student. Every class visits the library once a week for 45 minutes. Kindergarten students may borrow one (1) book that will remain in their classroom each week.   First grade students may borrow one (1) book that will remain in their classroom each week during the first trimester. Second and 3rd grade students may borrow two (2) books; and 4th and 5th grade students may borrow three (3) books. All books are due back the following week unless there is a holiday or school vacation. We do not charge fines for late books. However, we do charge to replace a lost or damaged book. We ask that you remind your child to:

  • have clean hands when reading;

  • use a bookmark--no pens, rulers, or other items that may damage the book;

  • find a quiet, well-lit place to read;

  • keep books out of reach of pets and younger siblings;

  • send damaged books to school for repair;

  • And return books on time so that others may enjoy them.
