New York State
School Under Registration Review (SURR) Status
For South Park High School in Buffalo School District
This school is
presently identified as a School Under Registration Review (SURR). Commissioner’s Regulations require the
Commissioner to annually place under Registration Review those schools that are
determined to be farthest from State standards and most in need of
improvement. The Commissioner
establishes a timeline by which each SURR must meet performance targets in its
area(s) of identification. A school
that meets these targets may be removed from registration review, except that
in the school’s first year of identification the school must not only achieve
its performance targets, but also meet all State standards in its area(s) of identification
to be removed from registration review.
The Commissioner may recommend that the Board of Regents revoke the
registration of the school that does not perform satisfactorily. Revocation of registration will prevent the
school from further operation as a public school. When circumstances warrant, the Commissioner may extend the time
frame for a school to make the required progress.
When a school is
identified for registration review, a team of experts visits the school and
prepares a report. Each district
develops a Corrective Action Plan and each school develops a Comprehensive
Education Plan to address the recommendations contained in the report. Both the State Education Department and the
local school district provide additional support and resources to assist the
school to improve.
A school identified
for SURR may also be identified as a School In Need of Improvement for failure
to make Adequate Yearly Progress as required by the No Child Left Behind
Act. In this case the SURR may also be required to offer school choice
and/or supplemental educational services. The following charts display the
school’s performance on State English language arts and mathematics
accountability criteria for period from 2001-2002 to the end of the target timeline,
including the year for which the school was identified, the subsequent history
of measured performance, and the minimum and target levels established for the
school.

This school was identified for SURR during the 2002-2003
school year. This school was given
SURR performance targets on this criterion based upon its 2001-2002 school
year performance. Target performance
must be met by 2005-2006. 2001-02 performance is based upon the percentage of
the annual high school cohort meeting graduation assessment
requirements. 2002-2003 through
2005-06 performance and targets are based upon the High School Performance
Index. *
To be considered for removal from registration review in
the year of a school’s SURR identification, the school must achieve the State
standard of 150 on the criteria for which it was identified. |
