Summary

Existing law provides for the development and adoption of common core academic content standards by the State Board of Education, and requires the state board to adopt curriculum frameworks and instructional materials that are aligned to those content standards. Existing law establishes the Measurement of Academic Performance and Progress for the development, adoption, and administration of assessments to pupils in elementary and secondary school that, among other things, assess the common core academic content standards. This bill, operative on July 1, 2015, would specify that a school district may opt out of any state statute or regulation that would require the use of common core academic content standards by that school district, including, but not limited to, curriculum frameworks, instructional materials, and assessments. The bill would require a school district that opts out pursuant to those provisions to use the academic content standards that were used in this state before the adoption of the common core academic content standards, and would also require the school district, at its own expense, to administer a standards-based achievement test pursuant to the former Standardized Testing and Reporting Program, which was repealed on January 1, 2014. The bill would make those provisions inoperative on July 1, 2020, and would repeal them on January 1, 2021.
