How Parents Can Screen Books in The School Media Center

Ever wonder which books your child has access to at school? In 3 easy steps, you can discover and review any book in your child’s school media center and make an informed decision on what you find objectional or inappropriate for the school learning environment.
STEP 1 – WHERE DO I BEGIN? I DON’T KNOW THE NAMES OF ANY BOOKS?
You can start here. This list only contains some obscene books found in K-12 schools.
You can also do a web search for “Top challenged books in school libraries” which should bring back many results and web links, which you can lookup their titles below.
STEP2 – RESEARCH BOOK CONTENTS & RATINGS

Below is an excellent resource called BookLooks.org. You can search for titles alphabetically and click each book to see a summary of contents along with excerpts from the book. Each book is rated on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being most extreme with language, sexual content, drug and alcohol use, abuse, violence, etc. When you find a book that’s objectionable, you can then check to see if the book is in your child’s school in STEP 3.

  1. This would mean the parents actually taking the time to be interested in the procedure. But wait it is up to the schools to do this for the parent as the parent just docent care or want to take the time to actually be involved in the child’s education!!!

  2. Defund public education, school vouchers, home schooling??, maybe sue for pushing the luciferian religion…do Christian books get on these shevles?
    get the luciferian religion and preachers out of education, problems solved
