How do I get my Valencia books for the Fall?
OCPS has created a form for students to request books.
1. Students will individually register for classes.
2. Students will send their detailed schedules to their counselor.
3. Students fill out the book request form. A separate form must be completed for each class.
4. Counselors will approve the request if they have a detailed schedule verifying the student is enrolled in the class.
5. The school will order the approved books in bulk.
6. Books will be shipped to DP.
7. Ms. Loftus will send a Remind message when books arrive. *Dual Enrollment students should Sign up for Remind updates for Dual Enrollment news.
8. Students can pick them up in Media Center.
This is a multi-step process so it is CRITICAL that you follow all steps and fill out the form appropriately for all classes.
