• In Chandler Unified School District, we are for all students all the time and we strive to foster learning environments that are inclusive of every person. This effort includes providing students opportunities to see themselves and others in the books they read. Students self-select books when they check materials out from our libraries. Additionally, per CUSD Board policy, the following standards are used in the selection of library books, materials, and electronic media:

     

    • Materials and media that widen the boundaries of the students’ thinking, that enrich their lives and help them fulfill their recreational and emotional needs.

    • Materials and media that have imaginative appeal and a style that is interesting.

    • Materials and media that stimulate the imagination, provide for mental growth, develop a taste for good writing, and draw attention to the beautiful and artistic.
