Statement from Ƶapp Spokesperson JP O’Hare

"We are aware of materials being posted online, including test study guides and curriculum content, that contain references to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. These documents were not created or approved by theƵapp and are in no way endorsed by NYSED.

To be clear, theƵapp does not create or distribute curriculum or study guides. School districts and charter schools are responsible for developing curriculum aligned to state learning standards. The Ƶapp State Regents Examinations are developed by teams of Ƶapp State educators from across the state, with careful review processes to ensure quality and appropriateness.

We are taking this matter seriously and will continue to monitor and take appropriate action as needed.”
