Unfortunately, the regularly scheduled Parent Book Exchange on Tuesday, June 16th, 2020, and the Textbook Buyback session with Alpha Textbooks on Wednesday, June 17th, 2020 have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
In order to assist parents with the resale and purchase of textbooks, there are now two possibilities.
1. Alpha Textbooks – You may download the return instructions and forms provided to us by Alpha Textbooks and drop off your books (packaged as instructed) to their store location following the procedures outlined. Alpha Textbooks will then deal with all credits and payments.

2. Parent Private Sales and Exchanges – You may complete the google form below by clicking on the icon to list the books you are looking to sell, price and contact information. These forms will need to be completed by Monday, June 15th, 2020. We will then compile all the information by grade and post the PDF documents on the Parent Community Info Page in Edsby. Parents are then free to contact any of the parents listed to arrange for the purchase of books listed.
In both cases, the school is not involved in the prices, collection of monies, or the physical exchange of the books.
All parties also need to take all appropriate precautions in handling items from another person and need to maintain proper social distancing and the use of proper personal protective equipment such as masks and gloves.
