What Have the Regents and SED Done to Raise Achievement?

• Approved new, higher math standards, developed by educators statewide.

• Eliminated uncertified teachers statewide.

• Worked closely with schools to produce a well-defined, grade-by-grade math core curriculum based on those standards.

• Worked with Big 5 math directors, BOCES, other math experts to reach a common understanding of the new curriculum and the best ways to implement it in the schools.
