Updated: Jun 3, 2021


This May, pay tribute to the generations of Asians and Pacific Islanders who have enriched America's history and are instrumental in its future success by reading a book by and about individuals of Asian or Pacific Islander heritage.




Turn In Books!


Yearbook pickup is in just two weeks, but only students who have cleared overdue books and fees from previous years will be able to get theirs. Seniors who do not take care of all books and fees by their last day of class will be unable to pick up their diplomas or order transcripts.


If you're on campus, just bring your books to the textbook window. If you're distance learning and need to pay fees or want to hand your book to a person, please request a drop-off appointment using the form on the library's home page. And everyone can use the drop box at the back door of the library to return books 24/7!


Not sure what's on your library record? Log into Alexandria, our online catalog, using the same username and password you use to log into school computers, then click "Patron Status."




Student Checkouts

@ the Library


Madeline, grade 11, read Water for Elephants and left a four star review on Alexandria:


"I enjoyed reading Water for Elephants, by Sara Gruen, because of its unique and exciting plot, and the characters. I recommend this book to people who like young adult fiction, adventure, or the circus."


Want to check it out? You can borrow the electronic version on the Sora app or SoraApp.com or order the print copy for pickup curbside or on campus!
