The New York State Education Department's Portrait of a Graduate was recently adopted by the New York State Board of Regents. This is a significant step toward changing the framework of New York's education system to ensure students graduate with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed after high school. CSCSD will be closely following the development and roll-out of the new framework.
The State Education Department has created a Frequently Asked Questions webpage with more information. The department also created a survey to collect feedback on the plan.
