Summary

A presenter said a teacher committee is determining preferred textbooks for students and described the process; no formal adoption vote appears in the transcript.

Presenter said the district uses a committee of teachers to review and determine which textbooks they prefer for students, noting the committee’s role in the selection process.

The presenter described the process as iterative and said that "we have a group of teachers that are on a committee to determine which are the books they prefer for our students." The presenter invited questions about that process but the transcript does not record a vote or final approval.

Why it matters: textbook choices affect classroom instruction and curricula; teacher involvement in selection is a common governance practice that shapes instructional materials.

What comes next: transcript shows the committee process and questions from the floor but no formal adoption or ordinance was recorded.
