Plain-language change summary

The recent updates to Bill SB 104 introduce a requirement that school districts only need to review their textbooks and curricula once every ten years, instead of more frequently. Additionally, the bill now mandates a review by the state Board of Education every five years for specific subjects like math and English. These changes are significant because they aim to reduce the administrative burden on schools, allowing them to focus more on teaching and less on compliance, while also ensuring that educational materials stay current through regular review cycles.
