Middle Level indicators of achievement checklists for the non-tested content areas

August 2005


In February 2005, the Board of Regents approved a three-model (Models A, B and C) strategy to implement the Regents Policy Statement on Middle Level Education. To support school districts and their schools with middle grades, regardless of which model they may seek approval to implement, the Department has developed Middle Level Indicators of Achievement Checklists.

These checklists of knowledge and skills assess the strengths and limitations of programs in the non-tested areas, to facilitate student achievement of the New York State Learning Standards.

The Checklist and additional guidance are available at www.emsc.nysed.gov/rss/mle/clmemo.htm. Questions should be directed to emscocis@mail.nysed.gov.
