POLICY ON RECONSIDERATION OF LIBRARY OR CLASSROOM MATERIALS

Persons not in agreement with the school on its selection of books and who wish a particular book to be reviewed must submit to the principal a "Request for Reconsideration of Library or Classroom Materials." The request forms are available at the school office.

The Principal, upon receipt of a "Request for Reconsideration" will acknowledge receipt to the complainant and list anticipated steps to be taken. The Principal will then establish a Book Review Committee, and schedule meetings necessary to review complaint and write report.

The final report will be forwarded to complainant and the Superintendent of Schools. It the complainant is dissatisfied, the next step is to submit his/her request to the Superintendent's decision, the complainant may request a review by the School Board, whose decision will be final.

During the investigation the book will remain in use unless the Book Selection Committee desires to remove or restrict the book until a final decision is made.
