[nabs-l] text books for highschool

[jeff crouch- k8tvv]

hi,
I wasn't sure what type of format they were sent and. The special ed director and Meralend for connections education asked me if they sent me a NIMAS file if I would be able to open it and read it on my computer. But not knowing what the file extension is, I'm not sure if I'll be able to read it with my computer or not. I looked on book share for the three textbooks, they are for English, but they are not on there.

thanks and warmest regards
Jeff Crouch
