Texas Spends $8M to Fix Curriculum Mess

Texas is spending over $8 million of taxpayer money to fix a botched “Bluebonnet” school curriculum packed with thousands of text errors, grammar blunders, and unauthorized images — a costly mess stemming from a controversial Bible-based program approved by lawmakers last year. With nearly 2,000 actual mistakes and over 1,000 image licensing violations, the state is footing the bill itself since it’s the publisher, not a private company. While the curriculum isn’t mandatory, schools get $60 per student to use it — and nearly a quarter of districts are already rolling it out. Education officials are now scrambling to understand how the errors happened and ensure the money is spent wisely on fixing a program that sparked national debate.
