Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced on Jan. 24 the creation of academic standards that will replace the previous standards, called Common Core.
“When I took office, I made a pledge to the citizens of Florida to overhaul our educational standards to remove all vestiges of Common Core and return to the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic,” DeSantis said in a release. “I am pleased that this historic task has been completed and we are well on our way to making Florida the best state in the nation for education.”
