Can you believe another incredible year at CAI is coming to a close? We’re so grateful for the opportunity to partner with you in educating and caring for your children. As we wrap up the school year, it’s time to prepare for final exams and return all textbooks and school materials.

Starting May 5, you will receive an email from the Media Center with important information regarding your student’s account. This email will list:

• All library books currently checked out
• Outstanding fines (copies, late/lost books, etc.)
• Textbooks and Chromebooks checked out
• Barcode numbers for each item – Please use this email to make sure the barcodes we show checked out match the barcodes you have (located on the front cover of the book).

To help us with a smooth and timely collection, we ask for your full cooperation. Items not returned by May 29, will incur a non-refundable fee for the full replacement cost and any unpaid fines. These charges will appear on your FACTS account and will place a hold on grades and transcripts until the balance is resolved.

Textbook Return Process: Textbooks will be collected during final exam week. Before each final, students should check in their corresponding textbook at the Media Center. Books should be handed directly to Mrs. Tibbs in the library who will ensure they are properly returned.

Please review these important return guidelines:

1. Damaged Textbooks:
   If a textbook is returned with damage (torn pages, water damage, etc.), your FACTS account will be charged for a replacement. Please do notpurchase a replacement through Amazon – we use specific editions and bindings available at discounted rates.
2. Lost Textbooks:
   Each student must return the exact textbook assigned to them, identified by a barcode. If the textbook is missing or the barcode doesn’t match, you will be charged the replacement cost. All books must be returned or paid for by May 29, to avoid a hold on academic records.
3. Clean Condition:
   Please remove all papers, bookmarks, and covers before returning your textbooks.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us collect all resources in a timely and smooth manner.
