High School Performance Based on ELA and Math Regents after 4 years and the Graduation rate. Regents examination scores are reported in 4 score levels: 0-54, 55-64, 65-84, Secondary assessments are taken when students complete the coursework for the core curriculum: therefore performance is measured for a cohort rather than a grade level
