If a scholar already has high school level credits will these transfer to FLACS High School?
If a scholar already has earned high school credits or taken Regents exams, either in 8th grade or at another high school, they should bring their transcript to the main office at registration. The team will award credits for courses that meet the requirements for credit in New York State and program students for appropriate classes.
