Agenda Item #25
Title
APPROVAL OF THE 1 YEAR UPGRADE AND 2 YEAR ADOPTION EXTENSION OF COLLECTIONS, THE HOUGHTON MIFFLIN HARCOURT (HMH), 6-12 ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS PROGRAM
Description
The current 6-12 HMH Collections program was adopted by the School Board in 2014. The one-year upgrade and two-year extension of the adopted instructional materials will allow us to upgrade our current digital content to the latest version from HMH, as well as continue the implementation of Collections through 2020-2021. This allows sufficient time for the textbook adoption committee to review and recommend 6-12 core instructional materials for use in the 2020 - 2021 school year. Per state instructional materials policy we can extend current adoptions for up to three years following the 5-year adoption term.
Recommendation
That the School Board approve the one-year upgrade and two-year extension of the HMH Collections ELA Program
