USEFUL INFORMATION
Need help with a research project? Stop by the Media Center and ask Mrs Neimann for some tips on how to use the Research Databases that are purchased by the school for your use! Teachers consider these electronic versions of information a source that is different from the Internet. You can also access the databases from home by using log-in ID's and passwords that can be obtained by stopping by the Media Center or by using the e-mail links above and asking for them. When contacting us by e-mail, be sure to state your full name and student I.D. in your request.
Students may wish to use their handbooks to make note of each current due date of all materials checked out from the Media Center. A .10 fine for each Regular item per day and $1.00 fine for each Reference item per day will be charged for overdue items. Most Reference items are only allowed to be used within the Media Center, however overnight checkout is possible for some items. Check the book(s) green card inside the pocket for the due date. All fines must be paid, or library privileges will be suspended. Final report cards are held for any students that have outstanding obligations.

The Internet is available to students in the Media Center before, during, and after school as a research tool when completing projects. All rules and regulations for Internet use as stated in the Student Handbook apply within the Media Center. The Media Center staff will be available for assistance in finding useful web sites and valid information pertaining to your topic. The Media Center has access to several professional and educational databases that students are encouraged to use.
Home Room Passes -Students may visit the Media Center during homeroom if they obtain an orange HR pass from the MC staff before school or in between 1st & 2nd hours. The student's name will be written down on a list. If students do not come in for HR once a pass has been obtained, they will be called to the main office. Only students that have obtained the Media Center pass will be allowed to remain in the MC. All students obtaining a MC HR pass will remain in the MC until the 3rd hour bell. Students taking a short quiz or test for a teacher will be allowed to visit on a regular Hall pass from the teacher. If you wish to cancel your HR pass, please visit the MC before HR begins and turn in your HR pass to MC staff.
