Exam Schedules

Linked here is the June Regents/Local Exam Week schedule. Your child will only be in attendance if they are scheduled to take an exam.  If your child has an exam conflict, please contact their counselor as soon as possible. Additionally, please note that transportation home is available for 11:30, 2:34, and 3:30pm. Transportation to Akron will not be provided midday. Therefore, if your child is taking an afternoon exam, they can take the morning bus and study in the MPR or arrive prior to the start of the exam. If a student has a morning exam and no afternoon exam, they can wait for the pm bus in the MPR, get picked up, or walk. The ALC will be open during exam week for students wishing to participate in additional regents review sessions.

Graduation

We look forward to sending our Class of 2026 off onto their next venture on Friday, June 26, 2026. A separate correspondence was sent home that highlighted information regarding rehearsal, caps and gowns, and the graduation ceremony. 

Summer School/ August Regents Exams

The dates for summer school are tentatively July 07, 2026 - August 13, 2026 followed by August Regents Exams. If your child needs credit recovery and qualifies, you will be contacted by our guidance office. We anticipate this occurring by the end of June.
