Please take a look at this extremely helpful New York State Regents Review website created by the Oswego City School District: http://www.regentsprep.org/

The goal of this nonprofit site is to help high school students meet the New York State Regents requirements in English, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. This project is supported by a federally-funded Title III Technology Literacy Challenge Grant and the Learning Technology Grant.

This site is already linked on the library webpage under “Regents Review“.
