Parental Choice for Books
Reading is fundamental to learning, and we believe our school media centers should be stocked with age-appropriate books, periodicals and other resources that educate, inform, enrich and entertain.
However, we recognize that not every resource may be suitable for every student or family. Therefore, we have provided a way for you, as a parent, to easily see which resources are available in our media centers and to inform us if specific materials should be restricted for your child. Please only complete the form if there is a title you wish to have your student prohibited from reading.
Preferred Names
Under School Board Policy JRA, “A parent/legal guardian or any person who seeks to enroll a student under a name other than the student’s legal name or seeks to change the name of a student already enrolled shall be informed that the name of the student as recorded on the birth certificate or other Supporting evidence as prescribed in Section 1003.21, Florida Statutes, shall be used until or unless a final court order verifies a legal name change.”
