Stakeholder Input
Per Florida Statutes, the new book purchasing process must allow for stakeholder input, meaning all students, faculty, staff, and community members must have access to the titles we are looking to purchase. Below are lists of books that we are looking to add to our Media Center at West Orange High School. If you review the lists and have concerns with a certain title/title, please let us know as soon as possible by contacting Ms. Wallner at shirley.wallner@ocps.net. Thank you for your input.
The following list of books may be added to West Orange High School Library. We are allowing our stakeholders the opportunity to review the list. The list can be found here.
