Bill > S03708

This bill aims to halt the implementation of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in New York's educational system. Specifically, the bill would require the state education department to discontinue using the Common Core State Standards, which were developed as a nationwide educational initiative to establish consistent academic standards across states. The legislation would render any previous actions taken to adopt or implement these standards null and void, effectively removing the CCSS from New York's educational framework. The bill represents a significant policy change that would require the state to develop or revert to alternative educational standards. By immediately voiding all previous Common Core implementation efforts, the bill signals a complete rejection of the standardized approach to curriculum and learning benchmarks that had been previously adopted. The legislation would take effect immediately upon passage, meaning the state education department would be required to stop using Common Core standards right away.
