Throughout the country, there has been a lot of handwringing over the new Common Core Mathematics Standards. In particular, there’s concern over whether introducing new ways to solve problems makes math unnecessarily difficult. A recent article in The Atlantic explained the new requirements and why they might be encumbering students. The authors write, “The Common Core math standards…take understanding to a whole new level. ‘Students who lack understanding of a topic may rely on procedures too heavily,’ states the Common Core website. ‘But what does mathematical understanding look like?’ And how can teachers assess it? One way is to ask the student to justify, in a way that is appropriate to the student’s mathematical maturity, why a particular mathematical statement is true, or where a mathematical rule comes from. The underlying assumption here is that if a student understands something, he or she can explain it—and that deficient explanation signals deficient understanding. But this raises yet another question: What constitutes a satisfactory explanation?”
In New York State, more than 200,000 students opted out of the Common Core exams. At the high school level, Common Core standards have been introduced into the English and Math Regents exams. In 2014, the New York State Education Department began offering a Common Core Algebra I Regents exam. This year it introduced the Common Core geometry, Algebra II and English Language Arts exams. On the math Regents tests, schools have seen a drop in students’ test scores because of the new standards. And high school students can not opt out of the Regents exams because they’re required for graduation.
Some students will be taking or retaking the Algebra I Regents exam on January 28, 2016 (you can find the complete 2016 January Regents Exam Schedule here). While the NYS website offers some Algebra I practice exams, students may need a bit more Regents prep to get through the exam.
In response to the increasing demand for January Regents prep courses, Long Island Regents Prep has decided to offer an Algebra I Regents Review class on Sunday, January 17, at Farmingdale State College. Come join us! You can register now online by visiting www.liregentsprep.com.

Thanks to everyone who showed up for our Regents Review Classes this past weekend at SUNY Farmingdale! Below is a schedule of the June 2015 NYS Regents Exams. Good luck!
June 2015 High School Examination Schedule
At its December 2014 meeting, the Board of Regents approved the provision of one additional opportunity in June 2015 for those students receiving Algebra I (Common Core) instruction that began prior to September 2014 to take, at the school’s discretion, the Regents Examination in Integrated Algebra in addition to the Regents Examination in Algebra I (Common Core) to meet the requirement for graduation and to use the higher score for transcript purposes. This change is intended to provide the same flexibility for students enrolled in four-semester “stretch” courses as had previously been available to students enrolled in two-semester courses or three-semester “stretch” courses.
Consequently, the June 2015 Examination Schedule has been revised to include the Regents Examination in Integrated Algebra on Thursday, June 18, 2015 at 9:15 a.m. To accommodate the inclusion of this additional exam, the Regents Examination in Physical Setting/Earth Science has been changed to Friday, June 19, 2015 at 9:15 a.m. For the revised June 2015 Regents Examination Schedule, please see the attached schedule marked “UPDATED 12/16.” This schedule supersedes any previously released schedule for the June 2015 examination period.
Thank you for everything you do to help ensure that the students of New York State graduate from high school ready for college and their careers.
Students must verify with their schools the exact times that they are to report for their State examinations.

This just in from the New York State Department of Education regarding this week’s winter storm:
From: Ken Wagner (NYSED)
Sent: Monday, January 26, 2015 10:12 AM
To: District Superintendents; School Superintendents; Charter Administrators; Public Administrators; Nonpublic Administrators
Cc: Cosimo Tangorra; Candy Shyer; Steven Katz
Subject: Important Update on January Regents Exams
Importance: High
Colleagues,
As you know, New York State will be affected by an historic snow storm over the next few days. We are seeing reports that well over half of our students from Montauk to Utica will be affected by one or more days of school closures during the administration of the January Regents Exams.
In addition, Tuesday is one of the final administrations of the Integrated Algebra Regents Exam, which, as you know, is a graduation requirement and an exam being phased out as part of our assessment transition.
Therefore, the Department will make the following one-time adjustment in reaction to this historic, extraordinary, and widespread confluence of events.
First and most important – be safe during the storm. Close school if you need to close school.
When the storm has passed, each school superintendent, charter school leader, and nonpublic school principal in a district or school impacted by weather-related closures must send to the Department at [email protected] a description of the date(s) on which schools were closed due to weather, which January Regents Exams had to be canceled, when you plan to administer the tests, and your comprehensive plan to ensure the security of exams and scoring materials during this time period.
Please observe the following constraints when submitting your plan:
All exams should be administered as close as possible to the original administration window.
All January Regents Exams must be administered by Friday, January 30, 2015.
Although scoring materials will be available according to the previously posted schedule, you may not access or distribute these scoring materials until all exams have been administered in your school.
Regents Exam booklets should be kept secure until 5 pm on Friday, January 30.
We will work together to ensure that this historic and extraordinary situation is navigated in a way that keeps us all safe, is fair to students, and trusts our school and district leaders to preserve the integrity of the Regents Exam program.
