May a district purchase the Big Books for use in class and a Student Practice Book for every student and be compliant with the requirements of the Williams settlement?
Districts should determine and specify in their sufficiency resolutions those materials which meet the definition of sufficiency. Education Code Section 60119 defines “sufficient textbooks or instructional materials” to mean that each pupil, including English learners, has a standards-aligned textbook or instructional materials, or both, to use in class and to take home.” If a district determines that the Practice Book covers all of the standards, and so indicates in its sufficiency resolution, it may provide the practice books for each student to use in class and to take home. In this circumstance, the district is not required to buy an individual textbook for each student.
