| Social Studies Textbook Adoption
Parents who would like to examine the textbooks being considered
for adoption in Social Studies courses in Fulton County Schools are
invited to make an appointment to view the books between now and October
28. Unfortunately, we must ask your patience concerning how we conduct
the process. The growth of our student population means we no longer
have unused space in the building. That means the textbooks must be
displayed in a working classroom, room 337.
Therefore, we must ask your cooperation in making appointments
to view the books. Please contact Elizabeth Russell at russellr@fulton.k12.ga.us if
you are interested in scheduling a time to review the textbooks.
The following days and times are being set aside on Monday – Thursday: 7:45
– 8:20; 11:30 – 12:30; and 1:45 – 4:30.
Thank you for your understanding and for your cooperation in arranging
for a specific viewing time.
