The following should be noted:

According to the Library Media Handbook,

adopted by the Kennett #39 School Board of
Education as of July 2014, every student
will be charged a 10 per day late fee for
overdue books or a replacement fee for lost
books. The Library Media Handbook can be
found at: www.kennett.k12.mo.us.


Lost books, damaged materials, and overdue
fines will be charged to the student in
Destiny (our library system). Charges will
be marked as paid in Destiny when money
has been collected from the patron. The item
will be recorded in the Monies Collected
Book and receipts will be filed in the
Receipts Book. Each patron will be given
60 days to pay their fine. After the 60 day
period, a charge will be placed on Power
School. Fines must be paid in full before a
student can check out another book. If the
book is found and returned to the library in
good condition after being paid for, the
student will be given a refund. Parents and
students can log into Destiny at any time to
check their account. Your childs teacher
will give you their user name and password.


We still have the Home Connect Program
running. You can keep up with your childs
AR progress through this program.
Log into the following web site:

omeConnect/
To log in: 1. Type in your childs first name
and last initial. 2. Type their AR number for
the password. (They will get their number
from the classroom teacher. It should be the
same as last year.)

Accelerated Reading is a program for
1
st
and 2
nd
graders. Each student
takes a STAR test on the computer.
This test determines a successful
reading level for your child. The
computer also sets a goal for your
child to reach. This goal is based
solely on your childs reading ability.
In the library, we will guide your
child to find books they can read
independently. After reading the
book the student will take a short
comprehension test for points.
Note: 1
st
grade starts after Christmas.


1. No food or drinks (including
gum and candy)
2. No Running
3. No Phones
4. Quiet voices

The computers are for school
work and AR only.
Do not print anything without
permission.
All copyright laws will be
followed.
Do not shelve your own
books. Return them to the
circulation cart after the
librarian has checked them in.
Morning AR time is for
checking out books or reading
only. If there are no empty
chairs to sit in you must check
out your book and return to
the gym.
Students are allowed to check
out one book at a time.
(Exceptions will be made for
special classroom projects)
If a student owes a fine for a
lost, damaged, or overdue
book, they will not be allowed
to check out anything else
until the fine is taken care of.
All students can log into
Destiny to see what they have
checked out or if they have a
fine. This is done by going to
Destiny Library. Then clicking
on login and typing their first
initial and last name. Then,
type their password which is
the same as their AR number.
When checking out a book,
give the librarian the old book
to check in then the new book
to check out. Place the old
book on the circulation cart. If
you do not have a book
checked out, tell the librarian
you last name.
