Parents and other members of the school district community may view the instructional and library materials used by the students. All instructional materials, including teacher’s manuals, film, tapes, or other supplementary material that will be used in connection with the survey, analysis, or evaluation as part of any federally funded programs must be available for inspection by parents.
Instructional and library materials may be viewed on school district premises. The district will publish on the district’s website a comprehensive list of all books available to students in libraries operated by the school district. It is the responsibility of the superintendent to develop administrative regulations regarding the inspection of instructional materials.
Note: The federally funded programs portion of this policy is a mandatory policy and reflects federal law on the subject of parental rights to inspect instructional materials.
Note: The publication requirement listed is a legal requirement. Until July 1, 2025, if districts do not currently use electronic library catalogs, the district may request a waiver from the Department of Education from this requirement.
