*The LATEST New York State Math Standards*

You may already be aware, but New York State has just recently changed the 
standards for the material being taught in Mathematics from grades 3-8.  
What this means for your child is that material from the old 6th grade 
curriculum will still be taught, with the addition of some higher 
level material being pushed down.  We hope to have a smooth transition to 
these new standards which will most certainly challenge our students to 
perform to their highest potential.  The math department at the MMS is 
dedicated to implementing these new standards to the best of our ability and 
we look forward to a VERY successful year with all of our students!!

When will my child take State Assessments throughout the year at the Middle School?

Over how many days will my child's test be given and how long is the test on each day?

What will the questions on your child's 6th grade State Mathematics 
Assessment look like?
