Spring 1998 IDOE sent out a list to schools of approved texts. Schools review textbooks and make selections. Summer 1999 School corporations report textbook selections to IDOE or apply for a waiver. Schools implement the new textbook adoption. After the State Board of Education officially adopts textbooks, a list of all newly adopted textbooks is circulated to the schools.
Local superintendents are responsible for establishing local review procedures.
After receiving recommendations from this committee, the superintendent makes recommendations to the local school board regarding textbook adoption. After approval, the superintendent reports the adoption to the Indiana Department of Education by July 1, 1999. Students will begin using the new textbooks in Fall of 1999.
