Textbook Policy
Textbooks are loaned to students at the beginning of each semester and must be returned to the business office no later than the exam day.
Textbooks are the property of Crescent Heights High School. Students are required to take good care of the books and may be charged for excessive damages. If the book is lost, payment is expected to cover the replacement cost.
Each textbook is barcoded with a unique number. Students are asked to return the exact same copy. Returning somebody’s copy would not clear your account.
