US EditionHundreds of Corrections Being Issued for Texas' Bible-Infused Curriculum
More than 1,900 corrections were approved to address factual, punctuation, and copyright issues in the Bluebonnet curriculum after teacher feedback, Texas Education Agency said.
- On Wednesday, the State Board of Education voted 8-6 to approve corrections to the curriculum designed by the Texas Education Agency, after some members questioned the high number of errors.
- Critics including religious scholars had earlier objected to content and emphasis, while board members said more than 4,000 corrections were needed after classroom teachers and education officials flagged problems, and more than 300 school districts and charter schools showed adoption interest as of August.
- The Texas Education Agency said it recorded roughly 1,900 edits across guides and workbooks, with review teams expanded from five to eight and most edits described by Jake Kobersky and Colin Dempsey as proactive or grammatical.
- Affected districts—roughly a quarter of Texas' 1,207 districts and charters—face material changes, with online curriculum materials to be updated within 30 days, while print timelines remain unclear.
- Democratic and Republican board members traded warnings about student impact and publishing standards, as Aaron Kinsey questioned if trivial fixes implied failure, Tiffany Clark warned errors hurt tests, and Pam Little feared sloppy publishing precedents.
