In a 3-2 vote, the Jefferson school board's conservative majority approved controversial curriculum review committees Thursday night with a compromise of including students and teachers.

The proposal passed despite fierce opposition from board members Lesley Dahlkemper and Jill Fellman, who accused the majority of rushing through the controversial curriculum assessment that's sparked weeks of student protests and teacher sick-outs.

Opponents who packed the meeting booed the vote, chanting "Recall! Recall!"
