TEXTBOOKS, MATERIALS & EQUIPMENT
Textbooks as well as other articles and materials of instruction are furnished by
Walkersville High School and/or the Board of Education of Frederick County
for free use by all students enrolled in Walkersville High School. It is expected
that such items will be returned in the same condition as issued, except for wear
caused by normal use. Fees will be collected for lost or damaged textbooks,
materials, or equipment. The teacher who has issued the book, equipment, or
material will notify the student as to the amount of the fee to be charged, based
on the normal life of the damaged property.
Students will not be issued another book, articles of equipment or material to
replace lost or damaged items until the fee has been paid. If the fee has not
been paid by the closing date of the school year, the final report card will not be
issued until the obligation has been met.
It is each student's responsibility to keep all books covered. Each department is
responsible for collecting a reasonable amount of money for lost or damaged
books. A formula for this is: 100% for the first year; 30% for the second year;
60% for the third; 40% for the fourth; and 20% for the fifth year. The condition
of the book is also to be considered.
