They have local control of schools, and local funding, right?[/quote] It seems as though, if they want to keep the grant money, all they need to do is to demonstrate that their new standards meet the goal of getting kids ready for college. If they don't think this is true then they probably shouldn't have chosen them. If they do think this is true, then they should be able to justify their decision to the feds, and keep the money. It seems reasonable to me that if Indiana requested money for CC implementation, and is now not implementing CC, the feds would ask for them to explain their plans for the money before they decide whether or not Indiana can keep it.
