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.
3. Parent Teacher Fellowhip (PTF)

The PTF is a group of parents prayerfully working together with the CDA-FM administration and staff to make our school a great community under God's direction. We seek to work in partnership with the staff and in tandem with the goals of Coram Deo Academy.

The PTF vision is to provide volunteer resources to the school, partner with parents, teachers, and staff to build community at CDA and raise funds to further the education and welfare of CDA-FM students.

To make PTF successful, WE NEED YOU! Not only can you serve your child's school, volunteering with PTF is a great way to get to know other CDA parents! Please check back here shortly (or use the contact email below) to find out how you can get involved.
