The New York State Education
Department mandates that all public school districts give state tests in
English language arts, math, and science to all students in grades 4 and
8. In addition, all fifth-graders must take a state social studies exam.
High School students in New
York State are required to pass FIVE Regents exams--in English, Math A,
U.S. History & Government, Global History, and one science subject
area-- in order to graduate.
