The cycle for the adoption of instructional materials by content is published by the FLDOE and is governed by state statute. Additional detailed  information can be found on the FLDOE Instructional Materials Website.

The Pasco School District is participating in an adoption of science curriculum aligned to Florida’s State Academic Standards for Science. The Office of Leading & Learning is actively working with our district department partners, teachers, school leaders, and will engage the community to complete the process. The courses below were submitted for vendor solicitation and the resources have been narrowed if resources were submitted for review. We want to ensure that the community and parents have the opportunity to provide input on the resources prior to the final recommendation being made to the School Board. Login information will be available below, after December 2nd, for each resource. Additionally, below is the Instructional Materials Evaluation Tool (IMET) rubric that is used by schools when reviewing the resource as well as a form that can be completed by parents and community members by February 19, 2025.
