Background
|
Middle School novels were last approved by the Board in 2004 and 2006. Additionally, the Vision 2022 plan includes the goal to provide experiences and instruction to develop students’ appreciation of cultures and diversity. One way to provide these educational experiences is to expand the collection of books read by students so that they see themselves reflected in the text and can learn about others.

On Wednesday evening the administration will recommend novels to be posted for community review for the middle school collection. The administration will present the process for how these texts were selected, how the texts expand our collection, and a new procedure for the recommendation of novels. All community members that provide feedback on the posted novels will be contacted by an administrator, and the feedback will be shared with the Board of Education.
