Instructional Materials
Flagler Schools’ K–12 curriculum is composed of a wide range of textbooks and other instructional materials. Each school year the district adopts a new curriculum in one major subject area according to the state of Florida's instructional materials adoption cycle. The instructional material adoption process includes opportunities for the public to review materials, provide feedback, and submit requests for the reconsideration of adopted materials.
2025 Instructional Materials for ELA K-12
The textbook adoption process includes input from community stakeholders, including teachers and parents. The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) adopts course instructional materials for each subject area and school year. More information on state requirements and procedures for instructional materials can be found on the Florida Department of Education website.
This year's Instructional Materials adoption public review begins on August 13, 2025, and will extend through September 2, 2025.
Materials will be available for review in the Teaching & Learning Office (1769 East Moody Blvd., Building 2, Floor 3, Bunnell, Florida). Materials may be reviewed in the office from 9:00am to 2:00 pm. Sign-in sheets and rubrics will be available.

Challenge to Non-Adopted Instructional Materials
Parents of a student or residents of the county may challenge instructional materials used in classrooms, school library books, or books on reading lists. Challenged materials must meet the following criteria:

We suggest that prior to submitting a challenge, you schedule a meeting with the principal of the school to gain an understanding of how the material is being used. Please complete the Request for Reconsideration of Materials form to submit a challenge.
