The proposed curriculum overhaul was released a week after the Texas GOP proposed requiring the Bible to be taught in public schools. School districts that opt to use them will get more funding.

Elementary school curriculum proposed this week would infuse new state reading and language arts lessons with teachings on the Bible, marking the latest push by Texas Republicans to put more Christianity in public schools.

The Texas Education Agency released the thousands of pages of educational materials this week. They have been made available for public viewing and feedback and, if approved by the State Board of Education in November, will be available for public schools to roll out in August of 2025. Districts will have the option of whether to use the materials, but will be incentivized to do so with up to $60 per student in additional funding.

    Genuinely looking forward to the Satanic Temple shenanigans over this one. A competing Satan infused curriculum would be fun

      Fuck the satanic temple. It’s supposed to be better when fake satanists argue with extremist christians inside schools? Fuck that, because that’s fucking stupid.

      Fight all religions, including stupid fucking satanists, stupid fucking noodle idiots, and stupid fucking jedi.
