The five mandatory Regents exams...


If you score less than a 65 on any, this schedule of required retakes must be followed 

transparent spacer graphic

Beginning with the Class of 2005, no student at Mohonasen will be considered eligible for a local diploma unless they have made two or three attempts on any required Regents exams where they scored less than a 65. This new policy is part of a district-wide push to get all students working towards a Regents diploma. 

A very specific schedule of required re-takes for each of the five mandatory Regents exams is provided below. Students and parents alike need to pay careful attention to this schedule since it may jeopardize graduation if students have not shown persistence and effort at re-taking these critical exams.

All of the five required Regents exams are offered annually in January, June and August so there are multiple opportunities for students to get extra help and then retake the exams to improve their grades.

Keep in mind that there are plenty of ways to get extra help preparing for these exams. Students taking exams in June or January should be taking advantage of Regents review sessions held during tenth-period. Look for the schedule of classes on the High School Web or ask your teacher! Summer Regents review classes are also offered for students who will be re-taking exams in August. Attendance at these review sessions -- as well as enrolling in academic support lab(s) at the high school -- can help you raise your grade significantly! Ask your guidance counselor if you have questions or need extra help.
