Laminating All laminating is self-serve. If you would like us to heat the machine for you, please call us @15 minutes before you want to use it (it turns off automatically if not being used). Cold Laminator: available in teachers workroom on 2nd floor. Please let Ms. Chavez know when the film is getting low. Hot laminator is in the Principal’s Conference room in the library. We will show you how to use the hot laminator and help you the first time then you may laminate to your heart’s content. Please do not send students to do your laminating for you -- that machine is HOT! http://www.brightwhitepaper.com/product/coollam-25-cold-laminator-catalog-14555-00/ https://www.mybinding.com/1/1/156-gbc-heatseal-ultima-65-roll-laminator-school-laminators-1710740.html

Library Hours: 8:30-4:30 To reserve the library and/or technology carts (COWs, iPads, etc.) Go to NDHS website & click on “Library” 2. Check calendar 3. Fill out form (or just email me!)

Please Be KIND Technology-wise! If you won’t need the cart after all, let me know asap. Pick your cart up by 8:45. If you reserve a technology cart, please return it when your time is up. Keep the cart locked unless your students are actively using the devices (they seem to disappear mostly at the end or in between classes). Make sure you turn in the same number of devices you checked out. Double check that devices hooked to chargers and ready to go for the next teacher.

Sending Individual Students https://www.healthyfoodforpets.com/measuring-canine-intelligence.html Yes--- please! I really enjoy having students in the library! http://www.readnis.com/reading--literacy.html When you send a student, s/he must: Have pass from you (if you are a coach, please talk to me! I’ll accept a texted pass If you’re out on the field!) Be in dress code Have on their ID (after ID’s are issued) Have something library-like to do. (Alas, unless they meet these requirement, they will be promptly returned to you.) Please note: I will ALWAYS try to accommodate your student’s needs! Please understand, though, that if I have a class and will thus be unable to assist/supervise your student or I am filled to capacity, I may not be able to.
