All of the buses now have Wi-Fi too so students can get a jumpstart on homework or relax with their favorite show.
So, what are you waiting for?! Get on board!

BL Bistro Account Management (My Kids Spending)
Parents can easily manage their child's BL Bistro account through the My Kids Spending account, accessible through the Sage Dining Services website. This website allows parents to add funds to their child's account and see the purchases their child has made.
BL VIRTUAL BOOKSTORE
ATTENTION: Important digital access information! Publishers do not deliver digital access in the same manner. There are 4 ways you may receive your digital access.
- You will get an email with an access code and instructions to activate that code.
- You will receive the code by postal service.
- You will show a receipt to your instructor to receive your access code.
- Or, we will create and activate your access code and you will receive this information from your instructor. Please do not assume you will receive your code via email. Publishers do not operate universally when it comes to their digital content.
Also, for future reference, we would like to encourage purchasing your textbooks/ebooks during the free shipping week of July 17th. This gives ample time to restock inventory when quantities are low. There seems to be a trend of waiting until the week before or the week school starts to place orders. This puts those students at a disadvantage in class when they do not have the necessary materials.
Remember, the textbook format is your option. If a digital ebook is listed in the Virtual Bookstore, you have the option of the hardcover textbook OR the digital ebook. Both are not required unless sold in a ‘bundle’ or ‘print combo’. Note that some classes will require a digital site for homework, activities, or quizzes. This is in addition to the text (whether in hardcover or ebook format) and is the equivalent of a workbook.
Note for MBS Direct
When completing your order through MBS Direct during checkout, you will see “MBS Direct recommends……”. These are suggested study guides and resources NOT required by Bishop Lynch. They are merely recommended by MBS Direct.
