AN ACT RELATING TO EDUCATION -- CURRICULUM
SB 233 repeals Rhode Island's requirement for statewide academic standards in core subjects (math, English, science, history, etc.) and the associated curriculum frameworks for all public schools. This bill directly affects public schools across Rhode Island by removing mandated state-level standards and frameworks that previously guided curriculum development. The key mechanism is the repeal of specific sections of law (16-22-30 through 16-22-33) that established these standards, shifting authority away from state education requirements.
