PARENTS

As you know, students are required to earn 1200minutes of satisfactory lab time in Earth Science.  If this threshold is not met, he/she will be ineligible to take the NYS Regent's Exam in June.  Check the progress reports to see if your child is ok.  There will be a comment informing you that Lab requirements HAVE NOT been met and that your student is unable to take the exam.  Please contact me with any questions.
