[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could it have to do with lack of $ to buy them? Is it cheaper to photocopy ?[/quote] Lack of money is a lie. MCPS had a SURPLUS of textbooks funds in FY 24 and still got an increase in textbook funds for 2025. I wrote Taylor, council and the BOE this morning when I read that in the news. I’m livid my 9th graders are still doesn’t have an AP textboook and has teeny tiny illegal photocopies from the teacher. The irony is the RT for this department is quoted in the media as “worried about our school’s diversity if they take out IB”. Why isn’t she concerned her department isn’t fully resources with basic supplies?!?[/quote] APs have textbooks? Don't most students borrow or buy them to study for the exam?[/quote] The College Board requires that students have access to an approved college textbook (not just a classroom set). If yours doesn’t, let the principal know that you will report the school to the CB if they do not acquire the books.[/quote] I also want to let the publisher know the school is making illegal photocopies of the book for the 100 unlucky kids without. Not sure how they chose which 250 get books. My kid registered in February so it seems they should have a book over the jiss added I the summer. We are at Einstein and it seems the RT and the principal dont care about rules or policies. I will look into how to contact the College Board about a potential violation for not providing textbooks [/quote] To report AP Course Audit violations, contact the AP Course Audit help line at 877-APHELP-0 (274-3570) [/quote]
