Prep Book and Supply List

Here are the four things that each Prep student needs to have purchased by start of school. 

1. Classics to Keep Books
2. Prep Supplies
3. School Readers & Agenda
4. Textbook Deposit

1. Classics to Keep Book List

It is the tradition of Great Hearts Roosevelt to inspire students to develop a personal library of literary classics they can keep, annotate, and revisit throughout their academic careers. To this end, we encourage families to purchase these “Classics to Keep” so that students will graduate with an impressive library of literary masterpieces. Students can expect to annotate in their books for class discussion.  This also serves the beautiful purpose of creating a marker for future reflection when students re-read these great classics of literature.

3. School Readers & Agenda

A “Reader” is a specific collection of carefully curated works or materials that the school has designed to use concurrently with teacher instruction and will be passed out in class to students. Students will use these to annotate, practice, or read.  These Readers are produced at the school and cannot be purchased online or at stores.  These materials include things such as, but not limited to the following:

• Textbook deposits will roll over from year to year and are fully refundable upon a student’s graduation or withdrawal from the academy, as long as books are returned in the permitted.
