• Make a Curriculum Review Request
    The “Parents’ Right to Know” Act requires schools provide parents (references to “parents” include guardians) of enrolled students with information regarding the curricula.  Parents of students enrolled in a teacher’s class may make requests for detailed summaries of the following information by submitted the Curriculum Review Request form or making the request directly to the teacher.

     
    1) instructional materials adopted by the local board
    2) supplementary materials used in the classroom that were not adopted by the local board
    3) books available in the classroom for students to read

    WHEN SUBMITTED SUCCESSFULLY, THE INFORMATION IN THIS FORM WILL BE RECEIVED BY A SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR WHO WILL MAKE THE REQUEST KNOWN TO THE TEACHER, IF NECESSARY.

    A response will be provided in a reasonable amount of time given the teacher's workload and the amount of information requested.  The response may come via email, phone, or other electronic means.

    ANY REVIEW OF REQUESTED MATERIALS MUST BE DONE IN-PERSON BY APPOINTMENT ONLY AT THE MUSCLE SHOALS BOARD OF EDUCATION, 3200 S. WILSON DAM ROAD, MUSCLE SHOALS, AL DURING NORMAL BUSINESS HOURS.  MATERIALS/RESOURCES WILL NOT BE SENT OR DELIVERED BY MAIL, ELECTRONICALLY, OR OTHERWISE, NOR WILL COPIES BE MADE TO RESPECT COPYRIGHT LAWS.

    After reviewing requested materials and attempting to resolve concerns at the school level, parents/guardians with continued concerns may file a complaint with the superintendent here.
