Dear Frederick Gunn School Students and Families,
We will again be working with the textbook distribution company Higher Learning to supply students with all books and textbooks required for their courses in the 2021-22 academic year. We are excited to announce that our Frederick Gunn Bookstore opens Monday, August 2. The online bookstore is organized to allow students to navigate to their specific courses to see the books that are required for the coming year. If a student is unsure of the courses they are signed up for, please feel free to reach out to academics@maxcreationgroup.com to confirm. While there are a few courses that do not require a textbook, these are noted in the course listings on the bookstore webpage. By ordering textbooks from Higher Learning, students will be able to pick up their books during on-campus registration on September 8.
Students wishing to pick up their books at our on-campus registration will need to select “in-store pickup” when completing their purchase online. Additionally, students will be required to present their order confirmation number when they pick up their textbooks. We strongly encourage students to use their Frederick Gunn School email when ordering books so they know where to look for their order confirmation number. Any books not picked up during registration will be stored in the School Store for students to pick up upon their arrival to campus.
Teachers will expect students to have their textbooks prior to the start of classes on September 13. If books are ordered prior to 11:59 p.m. on September 1, we can guarantee that they will be ready for pickup during registration. Any textbooks ordered after this time will need to be shipped to campus at the expense of the student.
The bookstore will remain open through the end of the fall add/drop period, ending September 29. If a student changes courses during this time and needs to return their textbook, please refer to the following link for returns information. If you have any questions about the online bookstore, please email info@frederickgunnbookstore.com.
All the best,
Amy L. Paulekas
Director of Studies
