New York Regents Exams
Tutoring especially benefits our high school students who are preparing to take the New York State Regents exams. Regents exams are held on our campus in January and June. We have seen improvement in test scores for students who opt-in to tutoring and are encouraged by the benefits the program continues to have on those who participate throughout their middle and high school education.
