After Public, Teacher Input, New York to Revise Common Core Standards
New York Education Department officials have made draft changes to improve Common Core academic standards with the pledge of better lessons that will also remain rigorous.
The streamlining of the Common Core criteria will be executed beginning in the 2017-2018 school year after the Board of Regents approves them in 2017, writes Lisa L. Colangelo for the New York Daily News.
The changes will be far-reaching, said State Education Commissioner MaryEllen Elia, but the state’s robust take on the national academic standards will not be watered down.
