[LM_NET] library fines

[Sonja Schulz <sschulz@NACOGDOCHES.K12.TX.US>]

I remember reading on this list about "paying" your fines through
reading time.  I think it is a great idea, and want to implement it-we
will be taking TAKS tests next week (7th and 8th grades) and all they
can do afterwards is read---my question is this...how much time do you
guys think is reasonable for set amounts of money.  In other words, if a
kiddo needs to pay off a $2.00 fine, how much reading do you all think
is reasonable for that?

 

Thanks,

Sonja Schulz,
