New York State
School Under Registration Review (SURR) Status
For Danforth Magnet Elementary in Syracuse City School District
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 a 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 the 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.
