been mailed to schools. School and district summary data are

June 2004 Regents Examinations.
Beginning with the June 2004 Regents examinations, all score
conversion charts for Regents examinations will be posted to the
website, rather than being included in the rating guides. The
conversion charts will be posted on the day each examination is
given, at or after the universal admission deadline for each
examination. To find the charts during the June Regents examination
period, go to
http://www.emsc.nysed.gov/osa/; the link to the conversion
charts will be prominently displayed, as will the link to the
scoring information website. Any questions about this policy or the
conversion charts can be directed to
emscassessinfo@mail.nysed.gov

Title I
Basic Grant Allocations for New York State. My News and
Notes informational update this week included an alert relating to
2004-05 Title I basic grant allocations. Our analysis of the
USDOE's preliminary Title I allocations indicates that New York
experienced population declines that may result in significant
reductions in basic Title I grant funding for many districts. As we
receive more information from USDOE or in the event there is action
by Congress, we will pass it along.
