Requests for refunds; and
Taking a picture for a student ID, and picking up a physical student ID.

Parents are encouraged to contact the Bookstore with any questions regarding student fees, instructional materials, or student Chromebooks.

Student IDs

Student IDs

All students are required to have a student ID with them at all times when on campus. These IDs are used by students throughout the school year to check out materials from the library, make purchases in the bookstore and cafeteria, attend athletic and social events, and check into different areas of the school.

This digital tool allows students to access their student ID from a smartphone. To get started, new students will first need to upload a photo of themselves, and then download an ID. Please review our Your Glenbrook Digital ID instructions for more information. Please note the following:

New Students will need to submit a photo for approval prior to downloading their digital ID.
Returning Students that do not want to submit a new picture can proceed to step 7 and immediately download their ID.
For those students that do not have a smartphone, or prefer a physical ID, one can be obtained in-person from the Glenbrook North or Glenbrook South Bookstore. (All students are eligible for one student ID card each year at no cost, replacement IDs are available at a cost of $5.00.)

If you have questions regarding the digital student ID tool, please contact the Glenbrook Help Desk at (847) 486-4555 or via email at helpdesk@glenbrook225.org.

Instructional Materials

Instructional Materials

All required instructional materials will be provided to students through a single annual fee. The fee includes textbooks (electronic or print editions), novels, workbooks, course kits, and other supplies. (Note: calculators, locks, heart rate monitor straps, and gym uniforms can be purchased separately from the bookstore.)

In order to keep the instructional materials fee as low as possible, certain textbooks will need to be returned at the end of the school year. Similar to library books, all returnable materials have gold labels and indicate that they are returnable.

An historical overview of the instructional materials initiative is available electronically. The current instructional materials fee is available by selecting the Fees tab above,
