South Carolina Standards History
South Carolina formally adopted the Standards, although they had been controversial. A bill to repeal the Standards beginning in the 2015-2016 school year was officially signed by the Governor in June 2014. The state legislation required the state to develop new standards for the 2015-16 academic year.
