Latin Textbooks Available for Review
Monday, May 23rd, 2011

Fauquier County Public Schools is adopting foreign language textbooks for use beginning with the 2011-2012 school year. Input from the public is an important step in the review process. The selection committee is recommending the following textbooks:

  • Grades 9-12, Latin 1: Cambridge Latin Course 4th Edition Unit 1 and Unit 2 Student Book, published by Cambridge University Press
  • Grades 9-12, Latin 2: Cambridge Latin Course 4th Edition Unit 3 Student Book, published by Cambridge University Press
  • Grades 9-12, Latin 3: Cambridge Latin Course 4th Edition Unit 4 Student Book, published by Cambridge University Press

The principal criteria for evaluating the texts are the Virginia Standards of Learning. The web address is http://www.doe.virginia.gov/testing/sol/standards_docs/foreign_language/index.shtml

The public is invited to review and comment on the recommendations from May 23-June 10, 2011, in the textbook office (room 4) of Building A (old Central Elementary School), 430 East Shirley Avenue, Warrenton. The office is open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. To make an appointment to examine the textbooks outside of these hours, contact Amy Hatton at (540) 422-7024 or aternois@fcps1.org.
