All books checked out from the Farmington Jr. High library should be returned to the school as soon as possible. You do not need to enter the school to return a book, there is a turn-in box set up in the vestibule between the school’s main entry doors that is accessible between 8:30 and 12:30 Mon – Fri.
If you have a library book in your school locker please email Mr. Martin, sgmartin@dsdmail.net, with your locker number (not the combination) and what book or books he should be looking for and he will get the book from your locker for you. He will also send you a conformation email letting you know if the book/s were there or not.
Books that have become due during the "soft closure" are not overdue and will not receive a fine if they are returned by the calendared end of the normal school year (ASAP appreciated!). Books that are not returned will be marked as lost and a replacement charge will be entered into ENCORE. Mr. Martin will need to order replacements for books that are not returned. the order will need to be made during the first part of the summer break.
Students with books that were already overdue before the "soft closure" will be charged an overdue fine of 10 cents for each day school was in session, with the fine for overdue days 1 – 9 waived, starting with $1.00 on the 10th day of being overdue and adding each school day up to the time of the soft closure. Overdue fines cannot be paid before the book is returned and the fine is posted in ENCORE.
Library Fines for overdue, damaged, or lost books issued prior to the "soft closure" have been posted to ENCORE and will need to be paid by the end of the school year. Fines may be paid online.
Thank you for your help!
Mr. Martin
