22. How Long Island High Schools Score on College Prep Indicators
The State Department of Education on June 14th released district-by-district data on high school seniors in the Class of 2010.
This chart of Long Island districts with high schools shows the percentage of students graduating high school; the percentage of students earning a Regents Diploma with Advanced Designation, which requires completion of more rigorous coursework; and the percentage of students reaching what the State says is a college-preparedness performance level, by scoring 80 or higher on the Regents math exam and 75 or higher on the Regents English exam.
Education officials say the earning of a Regents Diploma with Advanced Designation is another indicator of college preparedness.
