IMPORTANT!


Dear Students:
Please note the following important information regarding the end of the school year and your academic success.
1. Grading Policy for Regents Courses:
For all courses that culminate in a regents examination, students' report card grade will not exceed or fall below their grade on the regents examination by more than 10 points. Any student who achieves a score of below 55 will be required to do credit recovery.
2. Credit Recovery Policy:
Any student who fails a course in June will be required to retake the course in the summer. All courses must be made up through the Learning Link or through an accredited public school or university. The fee for Learning Link courses are: For each Secular Studies course - $495; For each Judaic Studies course - $295.
3. Report Cards:
Students will be receiving their report cards through the US mail. If a student fails a course, you will receive a phone call asking you to come pick up the report card and sign the credit recovery contract.
4. Tefilah During Finals:
Tefilah during finals and regents exams is mandatory if the student has a 9:30AM exam. Students who do not attend Tefilah and have a 9:30AM exam will be required to complete a project to have their exam graded. Non-submission of a project will result in points deducted from the exam.
Thank you and best wishes for a successful conclusion of the school year.
