LAGUNA BEACH
The Board of Education spent more than an hour Tuesday discussing the proposed history and social science curriculum for the next school year.
The issue was tabled so the district can try to add more elements of racial awareness into the curriculum before it is adopted.
In other business, the board unanimously approved making the purchase of 30 new musical instruments a priority for the district.
The instruments, which would cost $13,713, will allow the elementary schools to add a six-week music basics class for fourth- and fifth-grade students.
