The Florida Department of Education announced a list of textbooks approved for social studies curricula in K-12 schools in the state after having certain references to topics like Black Lives Matter and social justice changed.
The department said in a release on Tuesday that it has approved 66 out of 101 materials that have been submitted for approval, and those materials are now available for sale to school districts. It said only 19 of the submitted materials were initially eligible for approval because the others contained “inaccurate material, errors and other information that was not aligned” with state law.
