On September 7, 2023, Governor Hochul signed NYS Bill A514A/S5650A, “expanding access to advanced courses to improve educational equity” into law, taking effect on July 1, 2024. This new law aims to improve educational equity by requiring school districts and charter schools to provide annual notification to students and parents on opportunities and benefits of participating in advanced courses, how to prepare for and access such courses, and availability of related financial and academic support. |
