Coram Deo Academy’s elective program is an excellent way to enrich your child’s classical education. We offer a variety of classes that are designed to promote a well-trained mind and augment coursework. You may sign up for school year electives and summer academic camps here after enrollment has been completed.

Latin Summer camp and Friday Latin I

2. Order Summer Reading Books

Reading is a great source of knowledge and delight as well as a cultivator of imaginations, ideas, and rich vocabularies. If there is one golden key to future academic success it is the love and practice of reading. CDA’s summer reading program is designed to build fundamental reading skills as well as delight in good books.

CDA's Grade-level specific summer reading lists are now available! They can be found by logging in to CDA connect here where you will find the summer reading list under the Resources tab in the Book and Supply Lists section.

Summer reading is required. In the first few weeks of school, assignments may be tied to summer reading.

For your convenience, CDA has established a partnership with BNC to create a virtual bookstore, which will open during the first week of June. You are free to purchase books and materials from any marketplace, but we partner with BNC for your convenience, and to ensure accuracy. Using BNC, you can shop with confidence knowing all ISBN’s are those listed on the CDA Book List. BNC offers new and used books, with some available for rent. Please note some class materials are not available through BNC, and must be purchased elsewhere.
