legal@nysed.govInitial Review of Rule
As a rule that requires a RFA, RAFA or JIS, this rule will be initially reviewed in the calendar year 2019, which is the 4th or 5th year after the year in which this rule is being adopted. This review period, justification for proposing same, and invitation for public comment thereon, were contained in a RFA, RAFA or JIS.
An assessment of public comment on the 4 or 5-year initial review period is not attached because no comments were received on the issue.

Since publication of a Notice of Emergency Adoption and Proposed Rule Making in the State Register on November 5, 2014, the State Education Department received one comment on the proposed rule. The comment expressed support for the proposed rule and stated that students and educators alike need options before using the Common Core Learning Standards (English Language Arts) Assessment as it is the only method of evaluation for both students and educators. No response is necessary as the comment is supportive.
