[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not J-R, but a Deal teacher told us that DCPS as a whole was moving away from textbooks because the schools would hand them out and then -- in a large majority of cases -- never see them again. It became a significant financial drain. The only hard-copy books used at Deal were the novels that parents were expected to purchase for ELA.[/quote] When I first started teaching in DC, the Post used to publish the date that kids got textbooks each year. It was embarrassing to DCPS. The fix- don’t assign them at all. I used to be allowed to assign the old ones anyways. However, I’m not allowed to do so anymore except to those with IEPs. [/quote]
