Instructional Resource Adoptions
-
Through the support of the 2020 Portland Public School (PPS) Bond, PPS will engage in Instructional Resource Adoptions from 2021-2025 in Mathematics, Science, Health, Physical Education, Visual and Performing Arts, Social Sciences, Language Arts, English Language Learners, Dual Language Immersion, World Languages and Social Emotional Learning. Instructional Resource Adoption is an ongoing process that provides a systematic means for making decisions about curriculum review, revision, development, and adoption of practices and instructional resources in content and program areas. This cycle includes four phases: Define, Select, Implement, and Evaluate.
