    Library Use:
    • For teachers: If you want to reserve the library for orientation, class book check outs, research or other projects, and  meetings, please see or email the librarian, Mrs. Verdin rverdin@houstonisd.org 
    • To view library availability online, please visit the Library Calendar. The online library calendar has an updated list of classes/teachers scheduled to visit the library.
    • Students going to the library MUST have a library pass/permit and an ID - this includes office workers. Only students with permits and IDs are allowed in the library during school hours. Your teacher must write your name, date, time and sign your pass.
    • Depending on how many students/classes/clubs are in the library, we might limit the number of students in the library. Once we reach our maximum occupancy, you might not be able to come in the library. This is also true for lunch period.
    • Students who have Off campus passes MUST be off campus. If a student want to come to the library during their Off Campus period, they MUST have their off campus pass, ID, be in uniform and have an assignment to work on. 
    • Cell phones can be used as educational tools - do not use them just for social media or texting. Students may NOT use phones during the school day. You may use your cell phone in the library, during lunch or when part of a class activity. If use of a device is disturbing other students or staff, students will be asked to put them away or use their device outside of the library. 
    Computer Use Rules
    • Please follow Acceptable Use Policy and observe Appropriate Online Behavior.
    • Printing is FREE as long as it is for school work. 
    • Do not print web pages; copy and paste on to a word document (because we love trees and the environment!)
