About Our Program
We are excited to announce that Research Laboratory High School for Bioinformatics & Life Sciences will once again be offering an after-school program for our students. The goal of the After/Extended School Program is to provide quality, sustainable, extended-time programs to help students become healthy, college and career ready, contributing members of their community. The District Extended Learning model is a three-part framework, placing an emphasis on strategies that support a whole-child approach to learning:
Academic Enrichment – activities that supplement, enhance or reinforce what is learned during the regular school day including homework help and tutoring
Positive Youth Development – encourage students to develop into well-rounded, college and career ready adults
Health and Wellness – promote healthy eating through lessons and practice preparing healthy meals and physical recreation activities
We offer an afternoon program, Monday - Thursday, 2:40 - 3:40 pm beginning October 22, 2024. Our schedule for afternoon programming is below.
Leading up to NY State Regents Exams, the ELT program will be paused and replaced with a Regents Review Program January 2 - 17, 2025 in preparation for January 2025 NY State Regents and May 4 - June 16, 2025 in preparation for June 2025 NY State Regents.
