Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Monday a Common Core Task Force to review and revamp the controversial curriculum.
The governor said that the task force will pave the way for a complete reboot of Common Core.
"We must do more to reform the system because there is still too much disruption, anxiety and confusion," Cuomo said.
The panel -- headed up by senior equity advisor Richard Parsons - is a mix of 15 education officials, state representatives, teachers and parents from across New York. They will review how Common Core is taught and how tests are given.
Among those on the panel is Sleepy Hollow High School Principal Carol Conklin-Spillane.
The panel's findings and recommendations are expected to be completed and made available to the public by the end of the year.
Earlier this year, about 200,000 students statewide opted out of the exams.
