Volunteer Sign-Up Sheet, Library Books Due: 6/9

Jul 5, 2025

All library books are due on Monday, June 9.  You can see what your student has checked out anytime by logging into their Clever account.  In the Library Resources section, select Follett Destiny Discover.  You will be able to see what your student has under the My Stuff dropdown menu.  Please check under both Checkouts and Fines; books that have been out for months are automatically marked lost by the system.

Returning the book will eliminate the fine!  If a book is truly lost or is damaged beyond normal wear-and-tear, DCPS expects families to provide a new or gently used replacement copy.  Please email Ms. Leese with questions at rachel.leese@k12.dc.gov.

If you have time to give and want a nice, mostly-quiet volunteer experience, Lafayette Library might be right for you!  We’re currently inventorying the collection.  Attention to detail is necessary.  Inventorying involves a lot of sitting and standing.  No experience required!  If interested, please look at the signup document for more information and available slots.  Thank you for your support!

Finally, thank you again to the volunteers who made the book fair such a success!  We raised nearly $7,000 for Lafayette Library and donated lots of books to Miner Elementary.  Thank you to the dream team that is the Book Fair Committee and the HSA Co-treasurers:  Kathy Hsu, Shannon Wulf Tregar, Karmia Lewis, Kate Barnes, Liliane Antuanes, Mark Schofield and Karrenthya Simmons!
