CCP Textbooks
Requesting books: An announcement will be sent out with a link to a Google form to request books before the beginning of each semester. For Fall books, the link will be sent in early/mid-August. For Spring, it will be sent out in early January. For Summer, it will go out in May. Once you've submitted the Google request form, watch your JHS school email for further instructions on obtaining your particular books. If you did not receive the announcement with the form link, your counselor can forward it to you or use the QR code on the posters hung up around the school.
For CCP classes taught at JHS: You will receive your books from the classroom teacher and should return your books to the same teacher.
For CCP classes taken directly through a college: STUDENTS MUST REQUEST CCP BOOKS FROM JHS BEFORE INQUIRING WITH YOUR COLLEGE. Getting books from the college without authorization from JHS could result in students being charged for the books purchased.
Returning CCP books: CCP books obtained at JHS TLC or purchased through a college bookstore must be turned in to Mrs. Williams at JHS TLC (remember, books received through the college bookstore are purchased by JLSD). Fall and Spring books are due the day after your final exam. Summer books are expected by the end of the first week of the Jackson school year. Books not returned by their due date will be charged to your student fees (total purchase price).
Rental Books: If you are issued a rental book from a college bookstore, it must be returned to the college bookstore by the due date set forth by the college to avoid charges.
Students with Accommodations (IEP or 504)
If a high school student wants college credit for the class, students must use accommodations that are approved for college-level coursework. College-level accommodations ensure the student can access the course without fundamentally altering course requirements or lowering academic standards. As the college must meet institution and program accreditation requirements, this ensures that students have acquired the knowledge and skills required by these governing bodies. Students have a right to choose not to use accommodations even if their parents make the request. Click the following link for information on applying for accommodations for CCP.
