I need some suggestions on classical physics. You can help me with some high school papers or books to get started with.Thanks!

A long-time standard for freshman physics is "Fundamentals of Physics" by Halliday & Resnick.

you could also look into "introduction to classical mechanics" by David Morin.

Does that mean with or without a prerequisite of calculus?

I am clear with my basics of calculus.

Physics is incomprehensible without calculus. It's also great fun to learn calculus along with the physics :-)).

I would second this. Explanation are clear and brief. Very good memorable diagrams. The diagrams are meaningful and easy to understand. It is better than the Resnick book.
