No. NYS only translates content-area exams in the following five languages: Chinese, Haitian Creole, Korean, Russian and Spanish. Math, Science and Social Studies, at the 3-8 level, are published by NYSED in several of the most commonly-spoken languages in NYS. In Math – Chinese, Haitian Creole, Korean, Russian and Spanish; in Science and Social Studies – Chinese, Haitian Creole, and Spanish. All Regents level content-area tests (Mathematics, Science, Social Studies) are available in the Chinese (Traditional), Haitian Creole, Korean, Russian, and Spanish languages.
