Background:
|
|
Per Administrative Policy 2.11, every fifth year, the Board and its designee shall revisit all of its policies, rules, and procedures to determine their coherence and appropriateness to the present mission of the district.
The Administration recommends revisions to Administrative Policy 7.26 and Administrative Procedure 7.26 to uniform all textbook/material adoptions proposed by the district, to clarify the process that must be followed and to include the guidelines that will be followed by Procurement.
Additional language was added to ensure that the vendor understands and commits to the Spanish language requirements before submitting materials. Furthermore, additional language was included to ensure that evaluation criteria specific to English Learners (ELs) and bilingual program requirements are part of the overall criteria. |
