Biology Textbook Adoption:  The high school science department has been aligning their instructional materials to the Next Generation Science Standards. Most recently they have reviewed biology textbooks and as a result, are proposing adoption of the text below. The committee has reviewed the request and unanimously supports the adoption. The recommendation for approval will be presented at the July board meeting.

State Testing: State testing has occupied much of our time in May and June. Thanks to the diligent work of our building principals, instructional coaches, instructional support secretary Sarah Hadaller, and the technology team we have had an uneventful testing season.
