New FL education standards use word ‘evolution’

For the record, Florida is now teaching evolution:

Florida’s public school science standards for the first time will use the word “evolution,” although the biological concept already was being taught under code words such as “change over time.”

The new standards, part of a set of overall science changes adopted by the State Board of Education Tuesday on a 4-3 vote, require schools to spend more class time on evolution and teach it in more detail. AP

Can you believe a decision like this scrapes by with a 4-3-split vote?
