School Districts Begin Assessing Stances on Walters’ Bible in Classroom Mandate

At least three large public school districts have declared they will not be following State Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters’ recent memo that bibles will be in 5th through 12th grade classrooms with the purpose of being used for instruction. Walters also calls for teachers to use the bible as an instructional support for the curriculum.

The Oklahoman’s Murray Evans writes Norman, Moore, and Stillwater school districts have publicly said they won’t be following that memo.

Districts are also still waiting on the guidance from the State Department of Education on how to implement bible instruction in the classroom.
