For more information, please review the Independent Adoption of Instructional Materials tool in the Instructional Materials Toolkit.

Postpone Adoption

Request for Postponement: Postponement is good for up to two years starting with the publisher contract year of the latest adoption. All adopted Instructional materials must be implemented in September.
