Textbook return tips
Your students are responsible for returning their textbooks to the BHS Library after their finals.
* If special accommodations are necessary, please let the library know as soon as possible.
Please remind your students to go to the Library to check-in their textbook(s) and English novels following their final. If their books are not returned at the end of the school year, the students will be charged for the textbook. Charges are removed upon prompt return of the textbook.
- Please encourage your students to return their textbooks to a Library staff member who will verify whether or not the textbook was their copy.
