Yes. Schools and districts can order on a PO and we invoice on standard terms. Send it to the address on the Purchase Order Information page, or email it to us with your quote number.

Yes. Send your exemption certificate once and we put it on file, so qualifying orders are processed without sales tax from then on. Full steps are on the Tax Exempt Accounts page.

Yes. Build your cart and choose Request a Quote, and we send an itemized quote you can attach to a requisition. It can site your cooperative or contract number if you buy that way.

Yes, including TIPS contract 250802 through Nutty Brown Press. The Cooperative Purchasing page lists every contract we are awarded on and how to reference it on a PO.

We work with a small number of approved retail and distribution partners. Schools and teachers do not need a wholesale account, since education pricing is already on the site. See the Wholesale and Resellers page.

Orders placed online ship at $5 flat rate, and free once the order is over $99. That rate is for online orders. Anything we quote, including purchase orders, large multi-campus orders, and anything moving by pallet or freight, has shipping figured into the quote so your purchasing office sees the real total up front.

Most in-stock items leave our warehouse within three business days.

If your order includes something that's out of stock, we ship the in-stock items right away and send the rest when it arrives, typically within 3 to 6 weeks. Preorder items ship once the product is available. Either way, we'll email you if the timing changes, and you'll get tracking for each shipment as it goes out.

Yes. Send the list of campuses with quantities and receiving contacts and we split the shipment and label it by campus.

Tell us within 30 days of delivery and we replace it. Email howdy@argumentdriveninquiry.com with your order number and a photo.

Everything the investigation calls for, pre-packed and labeled. Each kit page lists its contents. Kits are built to serve one class at a time: 24 students for Grades K to 5, 32 for Grades 6 to 12.

No. The durable equipment is meant to be reused. When the consumables run out you order the refill for that kit, which costs a fraction of the kit.

Goggles, gloves, and aprons are the campus responsibility. Each lesson lists the safety materials that investigation needs, and we sell the common ones as classroom supplies.

On the Safety Data Sheets page. Every chemical we ship has a current SDS you can download and keep on file.

Both. Alongside the science investigations we publish Engineering Design Challenges and Engineering Camp in a Box, and they use the same argument-from-evidence work at the core.

An investigation answers a question: students design a method, collect data, and argue for the best explanation. A design challenge solves a problem: students work to constraints and criteria, build and test a solution, and argue for why it is the better design.

A camp that arrives packed and ready: the design challenges, stocked toolboxes, camper materials, and a facilitator guide. It is built for K to 8 summer and after-school programs.

No. They are written for a normal classroom with the materials in the kit. EDIT: confirm whether any challenge needs tools a campus would not already have.

They are different books, not one book with a different cover. Each is written to its own standards, with its own investigation set and alignment. Buy the edition your state uses.

Yes. Titles with a sample have a See a Sample button on the product page that opens the flipping book preview. Catalogs are free too.

Yes, for the K to 5 Spanish line: student workbooks, kits, and a Spanish bundle. Spanish science is still TEKS-aligned.

The teacher-facing digital side: lesson plans, slides, videos, and assessment tools that go with the books. It is $5 per student per year.

Access is tied to the campus agreement rather than to one person, so a replacement teacher can be added straight away.
