Release of NYSSIS ID for Higher Education Grants

It is SED’s understanding that all school districts participating in the Liberty Partnership Program, Science Technology Entry Program, Early College High School and NYS Pathways to Technology programs have entered into MOUs with higher education partners which detail how data will be shared, and for what purpose(s), pursuant to the program and consistent with FERPA. 

Moreover, FERPA permits the release of personally identifiable information from student records with parental consent, and it is SED’s understanding that all school districts participating in these programs require that parents sign forms, consistent with FERPA, consenting to the school district’s release of certain student data to the relevant higher education partner.

TSDL – Teacher Student Data Linkage (L2RPT)

To receive a PIN for a new teacher, districts must report a Staff Snapshot record (with TEACHER title) to the Student Information Repository System (SIRS, Level 2)

Districts must have the following loaded (Level 0, 1, & 2) before the Staff Student Course (SSC) can be loaded:

Location Marking Period Course file (table of all local course codes, linked to State course codes, that you will use to report SSC records) Staff Snapshot (Teach ID must match between feeder systems (HR & SMS)) Student Lite (Demo) School Entry/Exit (Enroll)

SSC records must be in SIRS (L2) for all applicable Students/teachers/Courses to show in the SIRS 315 (TSDL) and the TSRV (Teacher Student Roster Verification) in the TAA application (https://eservices.nysed.gov/taa/).

Common Core Learning Standards and Assessments

(http://www.p12.nysed.gov/assessment/commoncore/transitionccregents1113rev.pdf)

Regents ELA 2013 and future Cohort students, must enroll/pass CC ELA Regents.

2012 and prior Cohort Students, may enroll in the CC ELA or the Comprehensive English. For the January 2014, June 2014, August 2014, January 2015, June 2015, and August 2015 administrations

only, students enrolled in Common Core English courses may, at local discretion, take the Regents Comprehensive Exam in English (2005 Learning Standards) in addition to the Regents Exam in ELA (Common Core).

Students that take both exams may use the higher of the two scores for local transcripts, along with the higher score being used for institutional accountability for 2014-15 school year results

The higher of the two scores may also be used for the State growth and locally selected measures subcomponents, where such exams are allowable options under Education Law §3012-c.

* Any APPR plans in effect for the for the 2013-14 and 2014-15 school years should reflect this local flexibility, as appropriate and allowable.

DRC Answer SheetsJune 2015 CC ELA & CC Geometry

Schools participating in June CC ELA and CC Geometry Standard setting:

DRC will include a prepaid UPS return shipping label for schools to mail their answer sheets back to DRC

 The data being pre-printed on the answer sheets are:

First Name Last Name Gender Date of Birth Local Student ID Number District Name School Name Grade

If the pre-printed information is on the DRC answer sheet, schools do not need to bubble.

If the pre-printed information is incorrect, the student should probably not use that preprinted answer sheet, they should use a blank one.

Please remember to correct student information in your source system and SIRS

ESEA Waiver – Students in grades 7 & 8 taking Regents Math(http://www.p12.nysed.gov/accountability/memos.html)

Waiver has been extended to the 2014-15 school year:

7th & 8th grade accelerated students receiving instruction in CC Regents mathematics: students that take both NYSTP 7/8 and Regents mathematics

NYSTP will be used for institutional accountability Regents can be “banked” for HS accountability

Students that only take Regents mathematics Student will show as “Not Tested” on the Tested/Not Tested (TnT) verification reports Regents results will be used for Intermediate institutional accountability If student takes both CC & 2005 LS Regents exams, the higher score can be used for Intermediate

accountability, but neither score can be “banked” for HS (a different course of study would be required for HS accountability)

The same curriculum/assessment cannot be used more than once for accountability The possibility of intermediate level students CC Algebra I results being incorporated into their

educators growth scores is yet to be determined. NYSED recommends that all teachers with students close to the minimum “n” size set SLOs

for comparable growth

Note: Any student, who in the 2013-14 school year or thereafter, regardless of grade of enrollment, begins his or her first commencement-level math course culminating in a Regents Exam in June 2014 or later must take the New York State CCLS Regents Exam in mathematics that corresponds to that course, as available, and be provided with Common Core instruction. Most typically, this first course will be Algebra I (Common Core).

* Please see the FAQ section of this memo (http://www.p12.nysed.gov/accountability/documents/UPDATEDDoubleTestingFieldMemo4914.pdf) for more details. - currently 3rd update to double testing field memo, but may be updated for 2014-15…regents note is available at: http://www.regents.nysed.gov/meetings/2015Meetings/January/115brca2.pdf

Proposed Amendments relating to Pathways to Graduation(http://www.regents.nysed.gov/meetings/2015Meetings/January/115p12a2.pdf)

Global History and Geography Course Requirements, and the Global History Regents Exam At its January 2015 Regents meeting, the Board of Regents voted to amend sections 100.2 and 100.5 of the Commissioner’s Regulations to establish multiple, comparably rigorous assessment pathways to graduation for all students, establish a two-year Global History and Geography course requirement, and modify the design of the Global History Regents Exam.

The new regulations include a “4+1” option that permits a student to meet graduation assessment requirements by passing Regents examinations in English language arts, math, science, and social studies, plus an additional Regents examination or a comparably rigorous examination approved by the Commissioner.

The 4+1 pathway option does not change existing graduation course or credit requirements and students must continue to meet all current course and 22 units of credit requirements, even if they were to elect to take advantage of the 4+1 option. However, existing regulations provide several areas of flexibility for meeting course and credit requirements through, for example, the availability of integrated CTE courses and independent study

The 4+1 option applies to students who: First entered ninth grade in September 2011 and thereafter OR Students who are otherwise eligible to receive a high school diploma in June 2015 and thereafter AND

have passed four required Regents exams (or Department-approved alternative assessments) in English, mathematics, science and social studies.

Page 39: 2014-15 SIRS Data Collection Templates Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) are responsible for submitting a complete set of data elements to the SIRS in.

Proposed Amendments…Pathways to Graduation…continued

(http://www.regents.nysed.gov/meetings/2015Meetings/January/115p12a2.pdf)

The new regulations create graduation pathways in the Humanities; Science Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM); Biliteracy/Languages Other Than English (LOTE); Career and Technical Education (CTE), and the Arts; students pursuing any of these pathways must pass one of the following assessments in place of the fifth assessment currently required for graduation:

One additional social studies Regents exam or Department-approved alternative (Humanities Pathway); or One additional Regents exam in a different course in mathematics or science or a Department-approved

alternative (STEM Pathway); or A pathway assessment in a Language Other Than English (LOTE) approved by the Commissioner (which could

include a Biliteracy Pathway); or A career and technical education pathway assessment approved by the Commissioner, following successful

completion of an approved CTE program (CTE Pathway); or An arts pathway assessment approved by the Commissioner (Arts Pathway)
