    The Texas State Board of Education met this month to discuss potential changes to how social studies is taught under the state’s Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for K-12 social studies curriculum.

    The Texas Education Agency has also published a recommended reading list of literary works developed with input from more than 5,000 Texas English teachers, according to a previous report by The Center Square.

    Teachers and historians have raised concerns about elements of the proposed standards.

    Texas already has Bible reading in the curriculum.

    Has for decades.

    This is just rage bait.

          What’s the name of that subchapter?

          §74.36.

          Requirements for _Elective Courses on the Bible’s Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) and New Testament and Their Impact on the History and Literature of Western Civilization.

          Yeah, they might have to read some of the Bible in an elective about the Bible. I’m impressed you went to the effort to ctrl+F “Bible” in the curriculum to ragebait on a post with like three comments, lol
