The state Supreme Court has ruled that South Dakota's Common Core assessments are constitutional and follow state law.
The court heard arguments in February from the Thomas More Law Center in Michigan, representing two South Dakota taxpayers.
Plaintiffs argued that the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium, or SBAC, is an interstate compact requiring consent of Congress. And they said the testing process violates state law.
However, the high court disagrees.
SDPB's Victoria Wicks has this report.
