Greetings CHS Families,
As you may have heard by now, the New York State Education Department has chosen to cancel the US History Regents Exam this year.
The decision to cancel is based on the content of the exam and the concern that several items may exacerbate the stress and anxiety related to the Buffalo shootings a couple of weeks ago. These exams are developed years in advance, so there is no opportunity to create a new exam in time for the June testing session. Here are some important details to note:
#1: June 1st is now a regular day of attendance for all students.
#2: It is looking like this year’s Juniors and any Seniors who needed the US History Exam for graduation, will be exempt from passing this exam this year. Nothing has officially been communicated to schools about this exemption at this point. We are waiting for the exact guidance and we will communicate the plan as soon as we have the correct information.
At this time, we plan on giving the students a locally developed final that will count for 15% of the final grade. Exact details will be shared as soon as we hear from the State Education Department.
Sincerely,
John Thorsen & Michael Burns

Our alumni from the classes of 1970, 1971 and 1972 are invited to be honored guests at Chatham’s Class of 2022 commencement. Having graduates from 50 years prior be part of the ceremony is a long-held tradition at Chatham graduations. Due to the pandemic, that tradition was put on hold in 2020 and 2021, so alumni who celebrated their 50-year anniversary in those years as well as those who will in 2022 are invited to be part of this year’s ceremony.
Commencement for the Class of 2022 is Friday, June 24 at 6:00 p.m., followed by a graduation parade through the Village of Chatham immediately following the ceremony. If you are interested in attending, please RSVP by contacting Diane Hammon in the superintendent’s office at 518-392-1502 or hammond@chatham.k12.ny.us.
The State Education Department has identified June 1st as the day we must administer the US History Regents Exam. In order to create an adequate and appropriate testing environment we will be bringing the Junior Class in first thing, as usual, and we will begin testing at 8am. All 9th grade, 10th grade and 12th grade students will be on home instruction for the day. Teachers will be reaching out with directions for their students and more details will be heard, in the next week, to include information and direction from our students involved in the Quester vocational program.
Calendar Update: All CCSD schools and offices will be closed on Friday, May 27, 2022. We are modifying the calendar because we do not anticipate needing all of the emergency closing days that were planned for the 2021-2022 school year. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact your child’s school office. Please be sure to update your calendars with this change!
