In order to graduate from CAS, every student must:
1) Pass the ELA Regents exam AND
2) Put together a portfolio
There are two portfolio options.
Portfolio A is required of students who prior to entering CAS have not passed all five Regents exams. If you passed the Math or Science Regents prior to entering CAS, you do not have to do the corresponding project for the portfolio.
Portfolio B is for those students who have TAKEN AND PASSED FIVE REGENTS EXAMS (ie: ELA, Social Studies, Math, Science and US History) PRIOR TO ENTERING CAS.
Some topics have files for assistance or clarification on that part of the portfolio. They are all PDF files, and require Adobe Acrobat to view!
