Or. Admin. Code § 581-022-2355 - Instructional Materials Adoption
(1)
For each program and course in grades K-12, each school district, on a cycle
established by the State Board of Education, shall select and provide students
with free appropriate instructional and resource materials produced in
accordance with the National Instructional Materials Accessibility Standard
(NIMAS). These materials shall contribute to the attainment of district,
program, and course or grade level goals and reflect recent knowledge, trends,
and technology in the field. The school district process for selecting and
adopting instructional materials shall include opportunities for citizen and
parent involvement.
(2) The school
district process must identify whether the district coordinates with the
National Instructional Materials Access Center (NIMAC) when purchasing print
materials under OAR 581-022-2350 and 581-022-2360.
(3) Districts that do not coordinate with
NIMAC must provide instructional materials to persons who are blind and persons
with print disabilities in accessible formats under 581-015-2060.
(4) Sufficient quantities, including those
produced in alternate formats and those that cannot be produced from NIMAS
files, shall be available in a timely manner to accommodate the number of
students who will be using them at any one time. A timely manner means the
materials are available at the same time materials are available for students
who do not need materials in alternate formats.
