AUSTIN - The latest version of the social studies Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) are now available for review at the bottom of http://ritter.tea.state.tx.us/rules/home/sboeprop.html. The changes to Chapter 113 of the Texas Administrative Code reflect amendments made by the State Board of Education during its January and March meetings. The official public comment period begins Friday. Comments can be sent to rules@tea.state.tx.us. A public hearing on the rules is scheduled for May 19 with a committee vote on the TEKS scheduled for May 20 and a final board vote expected May 21.

(Editors note: The social studies TEKS are now finalized and are available at http://ritter.tea.state.tx.us/rules/tac/chapter113/index.html. The link to the proposed rules no longer works.)
