New York State Learning Standards

At the approach of the twenty-first century, the Board of Regents approved a new set of learning standards for New York Students. They represent the core of what all people should know, understand and be able to do as a result of their schooling. As such, these learning standards are to for the basis of a re-vision of education in New York.

With this revision, children may expect an intellectually powerful education no matter where they live, in which teaching, assessment, and the provision of supports for learning are to be closely linked; and in which schools and parents share the same high expectations of youngsters.

The Leeds Corporation of Long Island supports the Learning Standards of New York State and all our courses will reflect that support.
