[While the school’s book fees cover in full all consumable textbooks, they only cover the rental of hardcover textbooks. This is done so that the overall cost may be kept down by allowing a book to be reused for several years. Therefore, textbooks of this nature are not to be written in or otherwise marked up while in a student’s possession. Failure to take care of a hardcover textbook (or otherwise specified “rented’ book) will result in additional charges to the student/parent.]
During the month of April, early registration takes place. At this time, registration fees that are paid are applied toward the book fee expenses that are due in August. By taking advantage of this early sign-up, the $75.00 registration fee is not an additional expense, but becomes a down payment toward the book fee.
