Oklahoma State Department of Education mandates incorporation of the Bible into public school curriculums for grades 5-12.
Oklahoma State Department of Education has mandated the immediate incorporation of the Bible into public school curriculums, following the issuance of a memo on Thursday that informed school officials of the new requirement. State Superintendent Ryan Walters announced that the Bible is a "foundational document" for the U.S. Constitution and the nation's legal system, and that every classroom from grades 5 through 12 must have a Bible. The move raises concerns regarding the separation of church and state and the potential impact on the educational curriculum.
