News Announcements

Instructional materials used in Oregon’s classrooms need to reflect the most current information and research, and be tightly aligned to Oregon’s academic content standards. To this end, these textbook materials are subject, by law, to a review process every seven-years, and must meet at least 80% of the overall established criteria in order to be approved by the State Board of Education for use in classrooms.
