Now the same day that Bernadette Reinking's group won control ofthe school board in Dover, Pennsylvania, theKansasBoardofEducation made its own decision.
TheKansasBoardofEducation is set to vote this week on science standards that would encourage teachers and students to question evolution and to explore other ideas about how life developed on Earth.
Ms. KATHY MARTIN (Kansas BoardofEducation): If the teacher has had any apprehension about teaching controversy about evolution or any ofthe things that contradict evolution, they now should understand that it's perfectly OK here in Kansas to teach evolution and both sides ofthe controversy, either evidence that supports it or evidence that refutes it.
