REGENTS CAREER ACADEMY

Rather than splitting their day between career classes at the BOCES campus and academic classes at their local school, Regents Career Academy students spend a four-hour day at BOCES where they take both academic and career classes. This schedule frees students to more fully explore their field of interest, better preparing them for work in the "real world." Academy students receive in-depth exposure to the field of their choice through classroom lessons, field trips, guest speaks, community service and internships
