October Manatee Memo
Manatee Parents & Guardians,
Due to a technical issue, our student information system is not properly updating a field in Destiny, our library management platform. As a result, we are unable to automatically set your child's library access level. To ensure your preferences are recorded, please complete and return the physical Library Access Form that was sent home with your student last Wednesday. If you need another copy please click on the link: K-8 LIBRARY BOOK ACCESS LEVEL FORM.
Students who do not return a completed form will automatically be assigned General Access, which permits them to check out materials. However, General Access does not include titles marked as Parental Advisory Status for grades 9-12. Book checkout resumed on Monday, September 29, 2025.
Please contact the school office at 904.336.2575 with any questions.
Thank you again for your flexibility and assistance with this matter.
