Library

This is where you belong!

Students may check out up to three books for two weeks. Books can be renewed as long as there is no waiting list. Sproul does not charge late fees; however, if a book is damaged or lost, fines will be assessed.

WARNING: Sproul's library has a wide range of books for students. Many books are young adult, so if you check out a book that is not right for you, please return it and our librarians would love to help you find one appropriate for your reading and maturity levels.

Classes do not have a scheduled time at the library; however, the library is open before school, during lunch, and after school. Teachers also give students library passes during class, so just ask.

Let's Taco 'bout Reading!

Stop by the library to pick up a Reading Tracker or print one out at home. To complete this challenge, you need to read 20 minutes per taco (see tracker), up to 3 tacos per day. You can read anything you’d like: part of a book, an article, closed captioning on the TV, or anything you enjoy. Write down what you read below the tacos. Then, once you have a row of tacos filled, talk to any adult in the building about what you’ve read. Have the adult sign that row, and you sign the adult’s form. Once you have all your tacos read, turn your tracker into the library for a prize. There will also be smaller prizes given throughout, so be sure to have your tracker with you at school and watch our student news for the prizes! See Mrs. Martinez with any questions.
