Textbook Check Out

Happy Monday!
 
Your student checked out a textbook for science class today.  This is their book to use as a reference for the year.   
 
This textbook is the property of Westgate Community School; as such the following guidelines were discussed with your students today.
1) This book has to be returned at the end of the year. 
2) Students may not write in, or highlight this book.  If the book is returned damaged, they will be responsible for costs associated with replacing the book. 
3) Students will also have access to a PDF copy of the textbook in Teams should they forget their textbook at school.
