NYSED Cancels January Regents Exams due to COVID-19 Concerns

All Regents exams scheduled for January 25-28 have been canceled. The New York State Education Department (NYSED) announced the decision in this news release that came out yesterday. 

Jr. / Sr. High School Principal Matthew Sloane said, “We still don’t have a complete picture of what this is going to look like and are waiting to get guidance from NYSED. We are meeting with students individually to assess their own needs.” 

In early January, NYSED is expected to announce measures that address safety net options, mastery, honor and technical endorsements. When we receive this guidance we will share the information with you on our website and through ParentSquare. 

 At this time, no decisions have been made regarding the June and August Regents examinations or any other state assessment programs.
