High School 101 provides parents and students with a grade-by-grade look at expectations and requirements for high school with a focus on preparing students for post-secondary education and success. Participants will leave with an understanding of NYS graduation requirements, tips on course selection, the role of standardized testing, the test-optional policy, parent and student rights, and the ever-changing world of post-pandemic college admissions among many other topics.
