Final exams may consist of local school test or Regents exams. The N.Y.S. Regents exam will be the final exam in all Regents subjects. Only seniors who have maintained an average of 90+ for the year will be exempt from final examinations. This does not include Regents examinations. A copy of every school final exam should be filed in the office at least one week before examination days begin. Final exam marks will not be posted or given to students prior to the distribution of report cards.
