Good article. CA schools have a real problem since all text books have to be written especially for CA. The article mentions the requirement to have merged ethnic and handicapped pictures into the books but does not mention the requirement to have evolution taught in all the books. For example a math book must have problems that involve the idea of evolution in the problem itself. Every subject must conform to these kinds of requirements, and these are only two examples. Thus every book has to be especially written. No wonder the costs are so high and the kids have no better, likely worse education as CA schools are not rated very high compared to other states.
I hope the governors idea helps in this area but it doesn't address the real problems of high cost.
