Text Books

The school administration and the classroom teachers are aware of parental concerns about heavy backpacks.  Teachers are making efforts to coordinate the home use of the heavier textbooks.  One option for parents is to purchase textbooks to keep at home.  Websites that sell new and used textbooks are amazon, barnes and noble and ecampus. Here is a list of the textbooks from grades four to eight along with the year of publication and the ISBN numbers.
