The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) adopts course instructional materials depending on the year and subject area. More information on the requirements and procedures set by the state are accessible at the FLDOE website.
The textbook adoption process includes input from community stakeholders, including teachers and parents.
In order to voice your objections to the adopted instructional materials, you must complete the Objection to Adopted Materials form and return it to the Office of the Superintendent.
Additional details and updates will be provided throughout the review process.
