Arlington Catholic High School works with an online course material company called BNC Direct. We use this company to provide a one stop shopping experience. Most of our course material, print book, workbooks and digital content are found through BNC-K-12. Click on the link to get started.
This year we are using a Shop by Student Schedule:
You will need:
1) Student ID Number: In the FACTS Family portal Go to Family>Family Home>Pick your child Under Family Members> Contact information you will see the ID NUMBER System: ##### (It should be a five digit number). Your child’s email address will also display there.
2) Credit card or Paypal to make the payment.
3) If you are ordering for more than one child on one BNC account please assign the books at the end of ordering to the students school email address. Please only create one Parent account for the book store
4) Please have students set up their school email account prior to ordering books. Digital content should be directed to the student’s school email account.
BNC K-12 Direct Bookstore - Ordering Instructions
ISBN numbers are provided through BNC K-12 so you are welcome to shop for a lower price if you choose (e.g. Amazon). The digital content or print must be the same edition as provided by BNC Direct and must be device compatible.
For novels and paperbacks, some students have found The Book Rack, (located directly across the street from AC), to have a better price.
Summer Reading books are not included in the BNC School Store
Digital Textbooks
The types of digital textbooks/content that students will purchase for their classes at Arlington Catholic High School
ebooks - ebook/eTextbook is a digital, downloadable version of a physical textbook (usually a PDF format). These books are sold through our BNC K-12 Direct bookstore and Vitalsource. Vitalsource Bookshelf® is the platform in which is used to read, study and learn. Most of these books are a one year rental, the student does not own the book. (Vitalsource Bookshelf App needs to be downloaded to the iPad to read on the iPad).
Bookshelf App (free) .
Access codes - many of our digital content is purchased through access codes provided by the publisher. The access code is sold through our bookstore BNC K-12 Direct. The publisher then provides a code, to the student to access the digital text. These access codes are sent by US Mail or emailed to the student with the order. Once they get the access code in the mail, they will have instructions of how to access the content. This is a one year access code to the digital content.
