Proposed Textbooks on Display in North Fulton

Local residents have just a few more days to check out English/language arts textooks being considered for use in Fulton County Schools. The orginal deadline was last week, but it has been extended to Jan. 20. so more public feedback can be obtained.

Parents, students and staff can review the books at:

 
Room I-105 
86 School Drive, Alpharetta

Tuesday and Thursday, 7 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. 
Wednesday and Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Feedback can be provided online.

The materials were first screened by committees for elementary, middle, and high schools, resulting in two potential vendors. Schools are piloting the materials all school year, and after public feedback is received this winter, a recommendation for a final vendor will be recommended to the school board in the spring.

The feedback collected will be shared with the school board for final approval. Once adopted, the materials will be used with the 2012-13 school year.
