CyberLynx Correspondence Program respects and honors
parental choice with regards to academic curriculum and
instructional methodology. We support the use of a wide
variety of traditional and non-traditional curriculum
materials. However, because we are State funded, there are
restrictions on what student allotments can be used to
purchase. Therefore, while some curriculum series and
materials may be approved (by the Nenana City School
District School Board) for use, they may not necessarily be
eligible for reimbursement.
Please refer to
the Approved Curriculum List to see which materials have
already been approved.
