Texas education officials to vote on use of Bible in public school curriculum

Supporters argue Bible verses contextualize art and literature as opponents say it is biased towards Christianity

Texas education officials are expected to hold a vote on Monday on the use of Bible readings in the public school curriculum for kindergarten through fifth grade English and language arts classes.

The board listened to hours of testimonies from those for and against Bluebonnet learning", a new curriculum that will affect millions of the state's elementary public school students.
