High School Programs

Registration Information

In June 2026, School counselors and registrars will review final course grades and Regents exam scores. Based on these grades and scores, school and district teams will contact parents/guardians of students identified for credit recovery and support during summer.

  • June 30 is the final intake day for high school summer learning, with a portion of the day dedicated to RCSD student registration and the other portion dedicated to private and/or parochial school student registration.
  • A waitlist is available for students in grades 9-12 for summer learning programs. If space becomes available in a summer program, our team will contact families during the first week of summer learning (July 13-17) to offer a placement. At that time, families will receive instructions to complete a registration for their child to attend. If you are not contacted during this week, we will not be able to accommodate your request. | Add my child to the waitlist
