- July 2005 Use of Superintendents' Conference Days - The Regents continued their discussion in July of a proposed amendment to section 175.5 of the Commissioner's Regulations that would permit districts to use up to two of four superintendents' conference days for training and rating of the new grades 3-8 tests. Since the Regents June discussion, the proposed amendment has been revised to include a sunset provision in two years. The Regents asked staff to inform the field of their intent to approve the proposed amendment in September. The proposed amendment is available at the Regents website at http://www.regents.nysed.gov under "Archived Meetings."
