School book evaluation underway
Under Oregon law, all school districts
must evaluate their textbooks every six
years. Thia enables a school district to
renew or update those textbooks which
might be outdated, and also to provide
new textbooks on new subjects, or old
subjects, that have just become available.
The Portland Public Schools will be in
the process of studying and recommend
ing new textbook adoptions in six subject
areas this year: business education,
health and safety, drivers education,
foreign language, science and mathema
tics.
The process takes tw o years from start
to finish. Initially, committees of teachers
are organized. I t is their job to evaluate

and new material in the subject areas
considered.
Local
citizen
advisory
committees are also invited to attend
committee meetings to recommend and
evaluate textbooks. When the recom
mendation are completed, individual sets
of proposed textbooks are distributed to
the area adm inistrative offices and the
central administration. Administrators
and the public are then invited to
examine the textbooks for approval, dis
approval or comment.
According to John Fallman. in the
textbook division, the Portland Public
Schools textbook adoption project began
in January of this year, and will not be
completed until July 1st, 1977.
“In other words," Fallman said, “the
district will submit teacher, citizen and
adminstrative recommendations to the
school board in July of 1977. If the school
board approves the adoptions, the dis
trict will then purchase the books."
A ll interested persons are invited to
visit and review the proposed adoptions -
at one of the area offices, the textbook
division in tb> Child Service Center, or the
central administration building
to exa
mine the recommendations that will be on
display in each of these buildings, during
the 1976-77 school year. Fallman arid.
Parents and other citizens are involved
in the process at various steps through
out, Fallman emphasized, and opportun
ity is given for public comment before the
Board of Education, prior to final adop
tion.

D r. George Robinson has been an activ
ist in both the Black Church and the Black
political movement in America.
The 37 year old author from Sumter
County, Georgia has drawn freely from
his own experiences to w rite “T he Need
For M etanoia Conversion In The Black
Church." The title may be somewhat mis
leading to the lay person, who may think
they are in for some heavy complicated
metomorphic gobblygook. Instead, the
reader is treated to a down to earth,
common sense approach to the empow
erm ent of a people that have heretofore
been on the "outside looking in."
I t is of significance th a t George Robin
son hails from the immediate Georgia
area th a t now sends us Jimmy C arter as
the leading candidate for the President of
the U nited States. Robinson, like C arter,
has found his basic strength for leader
ship among the poor, the powerless and
the oppressed. Moving from the “Peach
State to N orth Carolina served to height
en the role that he would play in the fives
of his constituency. H e has led several
church congregations, and has served in
local, state, and federal governm ent

In the book. Robinson is critical of the
lack of political sophistication seen in the
Black Church, especially the leadership.
He questions the value of a religious
leadership that fails to come to grip with
the larger problem of the need for eco
nomic and political power among its
membership. Draw ing upon his own ex
periences' in government. D r. Robinson
seeks to shake the lethargy from the
Black Church leadership by offering
plain, easy to understand, “how to do it,"
methods to the workings of the Black
Church.

The Reverend Kay Wilson, a Scientol

the release of the files on these churches,
we will be able to get a better idea of the
scope of government harrassment of re
form minded organizations. When this is
known we will be able to help these
organizations put a stop to that harrass
ment by taking the legal action necessary
to ensure those agencies responsible are
ci .ied to answer for their practices.'
Reverend Wilson will be continuing to
contact churches in Portland, informing
them of the value of the F O IA , and work
ing with them on the requests.
‘We hope to help at least 15 churches
with a total of over 200 F O IA requests in
the near future. We feel this is one of the
best ways to ensure integrity in govern
ment and bring peace of mind to churches
who are concerned about their commun
