Proposed Amendment of section 100.2(p) of the Regulations of the Commissioner of Education, relating to school and school district accountability

The following proposed amendment will conform the Commissioner’s Regulations with New York State's approved accountability workbook pursuant to the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB), Public Law 107-110, particularly in terms of revising the school and school district accountability plan to incorporate the results from New York’s new grades 3-8 testing program in English language arts and mathematics. The regulations have also been amended to incorporate select flexibility that has been made available by the United States Department of Education to New York in the mostly recently approved NCLB workbook. 

A Notice of Emergency Adoption and Proposed Rule Making will be published in the State Register on October 4, 2006. The proposed amendment will become effective September 19, 2006.  Confirmation of the emergency measure as a permanent rule will be submitted to the Board of Regents for action at the December 4-5, 2006 meeting.

Any comments regarding the proposed amendment may be submitted to Jean Stevens, Deputy Commissioner for Elementary, Middle and Secondary and Continuing Education, State Education Department, Room 875 Education Building Annex, Albany, NY 12234.
