ISO high school Russian texts -- question, searching for advice

[Devin Browne]

Greetings all -- I've been out of the Russian teaching loop for some time now (8 or 9 years now??) but I'll be offering Russian 1 next fall at my high school.  I've been asked to investigate text books -- the last ones I used were Face to Face and Nachalo.  Face to Face was very high school friendly and my students liked it better.  Nachalo was geared more for college, if I recall correctly.  But, hey, that was a while ago.  Anything new, different, exciting that I should definitely check out?
