Legislators file lawsuit to drop Common Core State Standards in Louisiana

Say adoption process violated state laws The Advocate reports:

“The challenge, which was filed in the 19th Judicial District Court, contends that the state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education and the state Department of Education failed to follow the Administrative Procedures Act, which critics say was a required step that would have allowed crucial public input.”

Clearly, there is growing legislator opinion in Louisiana that the Common Core adoption process left the public largely out of the discussion. It will be interesting to see if the courts agree.
