INSTRUCTIONAL RESOURCES

Springtown ISD is committed to providing high-quality educational resources to help engage students in exceptional educational opportunities.

Instructional resources are educational aids or materials intended to be used by all students for instructional purposes. These may include textbooks, online materials, videos, or other media. Books and other resources are also made available to students through campus or classroom libraries. Library books are intended for voluntary use by students as they self-select independent reading materials, and are not intended to be the primary source of instruction.

Whether textbooks, library books, or digital educational applications, Springtown ISD is dedicated to providing exceptional, age-appropriate resources for all students.

Instructional resources are selected to meet the requirements of Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and the needs of the District's adopted curriculum. Additionally, library books are chosen based on the support they can provide to the curriculum, personal interests of students, and recommendations by employees, parents, and students.

This site is intended to provide information on the governance of instructional resources, as well as information for those who have questions or want to challenge the appropriateness of resources the District provides to students.
