Grade 1
Each Trent grade consists of twenty-eight sets of lessons and seven
examinations. A report card is issued following each test and upon completion
of each grade. Each set of lessons contains the equivalent of five chapters
from five separate text books on five different subjects. At Trent, you will
have no additional books, CDs, or tapes to purchase. Permanent grade
records are maintained, and grade transcripts are provided. Trent lessons
adhere to the Federally Suggested Guidelines for Education.
