U.S.D. 410 approved a new science curriculum with little fanfare and only a hint of controversy. The new curriculum textbooks do not include creationism. Members of the curriculum committee determined that creationism could be taught outside the text; however, according to USD 410 science teacher Darrell Kohlman, "If we teach creationism, we can't legally teach it as fact, only as theory." Following administrators' recommendations, the board voted unanimously to accept the curriculum.
