The Pre-selection adoption committee was composed of teacher representatives from each school and subject area.  These certified Clay County District Schools teachers vetted materials for the considered courses using a comprehensive rubric that aligned curricula to materials.  The committee met on January 3, 2022 and thoroughly reviewed available curriculum options from the state adoption list. The teams worked to apply rigorous alignment criteria using evaluation tools provided by the Instructional Resources Department and District Curriculum Specialists to each selection to determine the top products that would best meet the needs of the students of Clay County. 

In order to finalize the vetting process and produce a final selection, all 6-12 mathematics teachers were asked to provide feedback about the top choices and the ability of each to meet the needs of their students. In an effort to be as transparent as possible, the surveys provided detailed information about each product being considered.  Feedback was due to the Instructional Resources Office by February 1st to allow the District Committee to meet to review feedback and recommendations. 

The products selected for each subject are posted on the Instructional Resources page of the District’s website. The public is encouraged to view the products and express their individual comments and/or concerns about each one. 

Florida State Statute 1006.283 requires an open, noticed school board hearing to receive public comment on the recommended instructional materials. The publication of notice allows CCDS to meet this requirement. 

Instructional Materials for this subject were adopted during the 2016 Adoption year, with supplemental materials adopted in 2018.

Statute requires a district to adopt within two years of the State’s adoption year.  F.S. 1006.283 Requires a public hearing to be posted in a publication 28 calendar days prior to the event in order for the public to be made fully aware of the District’s intentions.

These materials would provide the teachers of Clay County current, quality, and aligned materials to enable them the ability to deliver and plan engaging lessons, and provide students with the resources to maximize learning and increase student outcomes.

Goal: 1: Develop Great Educators and Leaders

Strategy: 1.1: Develop a high quality and aligned instructional system.

That the Clay County School Board approve the adoption of the recommended 6-12 Mathematics materials.
