“The approved list followed a thorough review of submissions at the Department, which found 41 percent of the submitted textbooks were impermissible with either Florida’s new standards or contained prohibited topics – the most in Florida’s history.
Reasons for rejecting textbooks included references to Critical Race Theory (CRT), inclusions of Common Core, and the unsolicited addition of Social Emotional Learning (SEL) in mathematics.
The highest number of books rejected were for grade levels K-5, where an alarming 71 percent were not appropriately aligned with Florida standards or included prohibited topics and unsolicited strategies.
Despite rejecting 41 percent of materials submitted, every core mathematics course and grade is covered with at least one textbook.
Overall, Florida is initially not including 54 of the 132 (41 percent) submitted textbooks on the state’s adopted list.”
