Books from the Media Center

As the 2021 school year rapidly winds down, Wynbrooke has over 1,000 library books checked out. The vast majority of those are from the 2019-2020 school year. School was abruptly halted last school year with most of those books checked out by our students. Please assist us by returning those books as soon as you can. We have placed a book drop in the front of the school where you may return your books at the main entrance. If the books are lost or damaged, we are asking for monetary restitution. The cost of replacement is listed on the overdue notice. Fees for lost books will be collected through Wednesday, May 26th. DeKalb understands that the pandemic has created unprecedented challenges. If you are unable to pay for the lost materials, please email me at [email protected] Please include your child's name and student number.

Lost Textbooks

If your child has lost a textbook, please contact the school to determine the fee for lost textbooks. The last day to pay is Tuesday, May 25th at 9:00 am.
