Any two school districts that house their summer school population at a common site may participate in the Nassau BOCES Regional Summer School on a BOCES-aidable basis. The courses offered at any particular site are determined by the participating school districts in collaboration with Nassau BOCES, and may include remedial secondary courses and short-term academic or exploratory enrichment subjects at the elementary and secondary level.

 

The Regional Summer School enables students to enrich their education through additional courses; make up work for courses they failed or were unable to complete during the school year; complete high school programs in less than the time normally required; or improve their competencies in basic skills. It also provides for the administration of Regents exams in accordance with the Commissioner's regulations.
