Questions regarding summer school and/or Regents review were addressed directly with students during school on Friday, June 27th.

Q: If a student was absent on Friday, June 27th, how can he pick up his report card?

A: The main office will be open for report card pickup on the following days:

Friday, June 27th from noon to 2:00 pm
Tuesday, July 1st, and Wednesday, July 2nd from 8:00 am to noon

After July 2nd, the main office will be open Wednesdays only from 8:00 am to noon

Q: If a student was absent on Friday, will he be notified if he failed a Regents exam or a course?

A: Yes. Mr. Fisher will email all students who are absent on Friday, June 27th, and did not pass a Regents exam or course. The email will include specific instructions for credit recovery or regent review. This e-mail will be sent between Monday, June 30th, and Wednesday, July 2nd

Q: If a student failed a course, how will he make it up over the summer?

A: Any student who failed a course received a blue-colored notification on Friday, June 27th, outlining their credit recovery plan.

Some courses will be asynchronous, beginning Monday, July 7th, with daily assignments that must be completed and submitted online.
Other courses will be in-person, beginning Monday, July 28th
.

All students must successfully complete their assigned credit recovery program in order to return in September.

Please note that all Regents exams with scores between 60 and 64 are automatically re-evaluated to ensure that every possible point is awarded. Due to the Regents conversion chart, even a one-point increase on the final score may require gaining multiple raw points on the exam itself. Final scores reflect the official scoring and state guidelines.

Q: Is Regents Review mandatory? Can students work with a private tutor instead?

A: Yes, Regents Review is mandatory at Monsignor Farrell. Students who are required to attend received a cream-colored notification on Friday, June 27th.

Review classes will run daily from Monday, August 4th, through Monday, August 18th, excluding Fridays, August 8th and 15th.
Regents exams will be administered on Tuesday, August 19th, and Wednesday, August 20th, based on the state schedule.

No, private tutoring is not an approved substitute. Students must participate in Monsignor Farrell's official review program.

Q: If students already meet the state minimum for graduation, why do they need to retake a Regents exam?

A: While a student may meet the minimum graduation requirements, Monsignor Farrell's policy requires all students to retake any Regents exam they did not pass. Our goal is for each student’s transcript to reflect a passing grade in every Regents subject, demonstrating academic success and readiness for the next step.
