Informal feedback on proposed changes to the Journalism and some other TEKS will be accepted in response to the first draft recommendations through Oct.25, 2009.

The drafts were developed by the English language arts electives TEKS review committees that were appointed by members of the SBOE. If you provide specific comments and recommendations for any of the numbered paragraphs please identify the Knowledge and Skills statement (KS) by number and/or the student expectation (SE) by letter. For example KS(6) or SE (6A).
