Essential Elements Information

Here are downloadable versions of information about the Essential Elements of Standards-Focused Middle Level Schools and Programs. Go to the Essential Elements wiki to contribute.

PROTOCOLS for USING THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS
A set of three protocols have been developed to guide a school's use of the Essential Elements of Standards-Focused Middle-Level Schools and Programs. Taken together, the three protocols represent a comprehensive set of tools and guidance for beginning and sustaining a system of continuous reflection and improvement based upon the research-based Essential Elements and their rubrics. Each protocol can be used independently of the others. Click here to read more and to access the protocols.

Regents Policy Statement

Here is a downloadable version of the Board of Regents policy statement on middle level education. It describes what middle level programs should be like. It is policy!

 


To support school districts and their schools with middle grades the SED has developed theMiddle Level Indicators of Achievement Checklists.  These checklists of knowledge and skills assess the strengths and limitations of programs in the non-tested areas, to facilitate student achievement of the New York State Learning Standards. The SED recommends that administrators and instructional staff use the checklists to assess their instructional programs in the non-tested areas to determine strengths and alignment with the appropriate New York State Learning Standards.
