(2) The adoption period consists of the seven-year period following adoption of an instructional materials list by the State Board of Education in accordance with the provisions of ORS 337.050.
Following adoption by the State Board of Education, school districts make the local decision to select and adopt from the list (ORS 337.050 and OAR 581-022-1640), independently adopt instructional materials using the state criteria (OAR 581-022-1622), or postpone adoption for up to two years (OAR 581-022-1650).
