The following charts show the numbers and percentages of eighth-grade students who were tested and received passing grades in math and science Regents exams during the 2008-09 school year. A score of 65 or more is considered passing.

School districts vary widely in the proportion of eight-graders who take Regents-level courses and exams, with some districts enrolling virtually all eighth-graders and other districts limiting this to a selective group.

The first chart shows the Long Island and county totals, the second chart displays data for Nassau schools broken down by district, and the last is Suffolk schools by district.
