Mission Statement:

The mission of the Brightwood Elementary School Media Department is to design and implement a media program that will meet the needs of all students, teachers, and staff to ensure that they are effective users of ideas and information within their community.

Checkout Policy:

• Kindergartners may check out one book at a time.
• 1st-3rd graders may check out two books at a time.
• 4th-5th graders may check out unlimited quantities of books as long as no overdue books are checked out.  If any items are overdue, no more books may be checked out until overdue items are returned.
• Books are due two weeks (10 school days) from the time they are checked out.  Please renew unfinished books.
• Students are welcome in the media center during open circulation times with a barcode card. Open circulation times are 7:20-8:20 and other times as available. Come on in to check! 
• Teachers may schedule checkout and/or research times for their classes in addition to regular media times.  See Ms. Pendleton for scheduling and computer tutorial.
