One of the tasks Fountain Hills Unified school administrators and the Governing Board must take on in early 2026 will involve books.

Textbooks, to be specific, used in Fountain Hills High School advanced-placement (AP) math courses.

Teachers want to use more recent editions, explained Superintendent Dr. Cain Jagodzinski when the discussion-only item came up at the Dec. 3 board meeting. One of the books is an AP Statistics textbook edition dated 2015; two others are from 2007.
