REGENTS Review Classes are ongoing....How many have you attended?

Alg2/Trig:
Review books are available at Barnes and Noble for a low price. Some students have found them helpful in the past. The key to success on the Alg2/Trig Regents is studying outside of class. Form a study group of classmates and go over Regents questions at home.
