Parent's Guide to Next Generation Learning Standards

In 2017, the New York State Board of Regents adopted the Next Generation Learning Standards to make sure that all children succeed once they graduate from high school. This guide is designed to help you understand how the standards will affect your child, what changes you will see, and what you can do at home to help your child in the classroom.

Why Are the Next Generation Learning Standards Important?

The Next Generation Learning Standards are important because they will help all children – no matter who they are – learn the same skills. They create clear expectations for what your child should know and be able to do in key areas: reading, writing, speaking and listening, language and mathematics. If you know what these expectations are, then you can work with the teacher and help your child prepare.Ìý
