Curriculum List Information & Recommendations

! Bible Requirement K – 5th Grade: In an effort to train students to use their Bibles, we have chosen a specific Bible for lower school.. This will provide for consistency in recitation, memorization, and overall class discussion. Please make sure that each of your 2nd – 5th grade students has an NIrV Adventure Bible for Early Readers, published by Zonderkidz, ISBN # 978-0310715481. We recommend a home copy for kindergarten and 1st graders.

! July 15th Deadline – curriculum orders: It can take several weeks for books to be delivered so try to have all book orders placed before July 15th.

! Importance of ISBN #s: If ISBN #"s are listed, please be sure to order the specific edition listed. Reading assignments, including page numbers, will be given based upon that specific edition.
