If you are not able to pick up your books on Monday, be sure to get them from the front office on Tuesday.

Students are invited to place up to 5 books on hold EACH week. Please remember to RETURN your books as soon as you are finished enjoying them so others can too (Bring them to curbside or place them on the Library Book Return cart, located under the porch at the main entrance during normal school hours). 😊

Please see the curbside information sheet HERE for all the details about how to reserve (hold) books and how you will know if your books are ready for  pick up.

Library books may be borrowed for 3 weeks. They can be returned to the “Library Book Return Cart” located under the porch at Entrance 1 anytime during school hours, M-F, 8:30-4:00.

If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Dunbar: ladunbar@fcps.edu

Yearbook Contest

The Yearbook Committee is looking for your help!! This year we would like to give you a chance to “Design the Cover” for the yearbook. Your design should be based on our school theme “One Lees Corner Family #StrongerTogether.”  As you capture the many activities that occur at Lees Corner and at home for virtual learning, you must include the name of the school and year as part of your design.

See Design the Yearbook Cover.jpg for more information.
