Texas Schools to Implement Controversial Bible-Based Curriculum
TL;DR Summary
Texas has approved a Bible-infused curriculum for elementary schools, offering additional funding to districts that adopt it. The curriculum, which emphasizes Christianity, has raised concerns about alienating students of different faiths and potential First Amendment violations. KHOU 11 News contacted several Houston-area school districts to gauge their plans regarding the curriculum. Klein ISD and Cy-Fair ISD have not adopted it, while Katy ISD is reviewing it. Other districts have not yet responded.
