Common Core Repeal Bill Being Considered in North Dakota House

February 3, 2015 By Shane Vander Hart

north-dakota-state-flagThe North Dakota House is considering a bill that would end the Common Core State Standards in the state.  The House Education Committee held a hearing yesterday morning that drew 200 people to the statehouse.

House Bill 1461 was filed by State Representative Jim Kasper (R-Fargo) (an updated version from the draft bill I reported on earlier in January).  State Representatives Rick Becker (R-Bismarck), Wesley Belter (R-Fargo), Mark Dosch (R-Fargo), Keith Kempenich (R-Bowman), Dan Ruby (R-Minot), Roscoe Streyle (R-Minot), Blair Thoreson (R-Fargo), and Don Vigessa (R-Cooperstown) have added their names as cosponsors.

Also State Senators Bill Bowman (R-Bowman), Dick Dever (R-Bismarck) and Oley Larsen (R-Minot) are Senate sponsors for the bill.

The bill, if passed, would repeal the Common Core, withdraw North Dakota from the Smarter Balanced Consortium, and set up an interim committee that would oversee the development of new standard.  The new standards would then be subject to a legislative vote upon completion (if I’m reading the bill correctly).  Local school districts can choose the standards they follow in the interim.

Filed Under: Common Core State Standards, Education at State Level Tagged With: 2015 Bills, Bill Bowman, Blair Thoreson, Common Core State Standards, Dan Ruby, Dick Dever, Don Vigessa, HB 1461, Jim Kasper, Keith Kempenich, Mark Dosch, North Dakota, Oley Larsen, Rich Becker, Roscoe Streyle, Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium, Wesley Belter

    Be careful everyone..we are fighting this hard in Mississippi..so far they just want to change the name of it..not a total repeal of Common core but a rename or re-branding. Now that we have been sold out for the money it’s going to take a lot to get rid of it.

Campbell’s Law

"The more any quantitative social indicator is used for social decision-making, the more subject it will be to corruption pressures and the more apt it will be to distort and corrupt the social processes it is intended to monitor."
