High School Textbooks will be on display in the district office and on the Monument Valley High School Webpage for a period of at least sixty (60) days prior to the Governing Board Meeting at which time they will consider adoption.  

In recommending books, we will strive for continuity of textbooks throughout the different grades and use the same book series in all classes of the same grade.

"Textbook" means printed instructional materials or digital content, or both, and related printed or non-printed instructional materials, that are written and published primarily for use in school instruction and that are required by a state educational agency or a local educational agency for use by students in the classroom, including materials that require the availability of electronic equipment in order to be used as a learning resource.

Objectives of Selection

A.  Recommend resources that will support and enrich the curriculum, taking into consideration the varied interests, abilities, learning styles, and maturity levels of students served.

B.  Recommend resources that will stimulate growth in factual knowledge, critical analysis of differing sides of issues, literary appreciation, aesthetic values, and recognition of various societal values.

C.  Place principle above personal opinion and reason above prejudice in the recommendation of resources of the highest quality in order to assure a comprehensive collection of resources appropriate for the complete education of all students.
