...Got fines?...
You have options. Keep reading to see what you can do to do instead of paying your fines.
See Mr. Smedberg for any questions. Here in the Library we would love to have your fine money. (Pay it in the Bookstore.) That money goes back in to the library to purchase books and other supplies to run the Media Center. But if you'd rather... here are some other options.
We at Olympus Sr. CANNOT remove ANY fines from another school. YOU must go to THE SCHOOL that gave you the fine and pay it. Senior will NOT "walk" with fines from their past. |
Complete a BOOK REVIEW. ($1.00 off) (Pretty simple)
Log in!

Write itWrite a 3-5 sentence review. Some things to answer. No. You do not need to answer all of them!

Make a book trailer. ($2.00 off)
(See samples on the Olympus Media YouTube site)

- What is it? A trailer about a book! A commercial. A movie.
- You can include other students
- Do NOT use any important sounds. I want to be able to view these in the library. Yes music is okay but do not require dialogue.
- Be careful of music. One of my movies got rejected from YouTube because of copyright laws.
- Use relevant pictures. Find them, create them, take them or make them.
- Yes, I will post these on our YouTube channel.
- Keep them about 2-3 minutes
What software to use?
- Windows Movie Maker, Photostory, iMovie, Powerpoint* (File Save As... Movie), Google docs (presentation*) (File Save As... Movie), Keynote* (File Save As... Movie), iPhoto slide show, Animoto.com (even has an iThing app to build movies), iThing App Splice is great, Your own Camera/app!
