General Information

Following SBESE’s approval of new titles, a State Textbook Caravan is to be held. All new materials approved in the specific content areas are presented to teachers and other educators in at least eight sites across the state. Publishers are required to make formal presentations and/or have sample copies available in a display format. All teachers, principals, and central office supervisors are invited to attend one of the caravan sites. The caravan serves as the initial overview and comparison of all new titles available. Due to space limitations, nonpublic schools are asked to limit attendance to 2 persons per school.
