Region 10 Instructional Materials Showcase Proclamation 2022 takes place on December 10, 2021

ESC 10  will host an Instructional Materials Showcase - Proclamation 2022 on December 10th, 2021.  This event will be free to Health and Physical Education Educators as they prepare to select materials through Proclamation 2022. Publishers with materials up for adoption will showcase their products, answer questions, and provide additional information to assist Districts. Visit this site for more information and to register for the in-person event, during which lunch will be provided, or for the Zoom version.

The State Board of Education (SBOE) uses a proclamation to call for new instructional materials. The proclamation lists the subject areas scheduled for review. It contains a schedule of adoption procedures, requirements, the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), and instructions for providing electronic files for braille and large-type materials. Proclamations are named for the year the materials go into the classroom. 

Proclamation 2022 calls for instructional materials for all courses in Health and Physical Education, English  & Spanish in grades K-12.  Irving ISD will conduct an materials adoption sometime in the Fall/Spring 2021-22 school year, materials will be ordered in Spring of 2022 after Board approval, and implementation will begin in the 2022-2023 school year. 

The State Board of Education requires that all Proclamation 2022 pre-adoption samples of instructional materials submitted for adoption be made available to the public online. The pre-adoption samples are posted to the Texas Education Agency website.
