=The State of New York adopted the Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS) for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science and Technical Subjects& and Mathematics in January 2011.

The Science and Social Studies Learning Standards remain the same at this time, with a recommendation by the Board of Regents for teachers to embed the literacy component of the CCLS in the current standards for those subject areas.

A national set of science standards is in the early stages of development.===== Click here to read about the research that supports key elements of the ELA & Literacy Standards.
