S 312 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act for the end of Common Core, and establishing certain other curriculum standards

This bill seeks to remove the Common Core State Standards from Massachusetts public schools and restore the curriculum frameworks that were in place before 2010. It mandates the creation of new committees composed of local teachers and academics from Massachusetts universities to develop new curriculum standards for math, science, technology, and English. Additionally, the legislation requires the state to release all test questions and answers to the public before the start of each school year to increase transparency.
