Read this pdf listing the dates and events: Community Involvement Opportunity.

Brevard Public Schools (BPS) is inviting parents/community members to provide input for the selection of Next Generation Sunshine State Standards aligned instructional materials. There are four opportunities for parent/community input.

Brevard Public Schools (BPS) is committed to fostering high-quality learning experiences we know students need to ensure they have a solid K-12 science education. The upcoming instructional materials adoption cycle for science is an opportunity to select high-quality instructional materials for the beginning of the 2018 – 2019 school year. Participating in the instructional materials review process is a powerful opportunity for teachers, administrators, parents, and community members.
