Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District teachers looking to test new books in their classrooms will now need such books approved by the district’s board.

The board voted 3-2 on May 9 to approve a new policy that requires board approval of a book before it is piloted in classrooms and requires that parents be notified of the book’s inclusion.
