605.3 - Objection to Instructional Materials

Members of the school district community may object to the instructional and library materials utilized in the school district and ask for their use to be reconsidered.

It is the responsibility of the superintendent, in conjunction with the principals, to develop administrative regulations for reconsideration of instructional materials.

[Parents or guardians of students enrolled in the district have the ability to request that their student not be able to check out certain library materials.]  
 

NOTE:  This is a mandatory policy, but the language related to  checking out materials is optional for districts.  The board may edit the policy and regulation to reflect its philosophy, goals and practices.
