The State Board of Education must not adopt and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education must not implement the Common Core State Standards developed by the Common Core Standards Initiative. Any actions taken to adopt or implement the Common Core State Standards as of August 28, 2014 are void. Common Core State Standards or any other statewide education standards require the approval of the General Assembly.The bill also establishes a group to develop state standards and test for Missouri and allows for school districts to continue with their current standards until the new standards are developed. 

This bill passed the House and the Senate. It is now on the Governor's desk awaiting his signature.
