Christ the King Continuing Education along with Christ the King R.H.S., Middle Village, hosted a TACHS seminar for parents of eighth graders attending Catholic schools.  The TACHS Exam (Test for Admissions to Catholic High Schools) is taken by all eighth graders who wish to apply and attend a Catholic high school. Parents were invited to attend a free seminar informing them of the process of applying for Catholic high school as well as what the test will cover and how Christ the King’s TACHS program will prepare their children to succeed in taking the test.  The TACHS program at Christ the King’s campus provides parents and students with two separate options to choose from to best fit their needs; one-on-one tutoring with a teacher and a choice of either weekday or weekend preparatory classes.   More than 350 eighth-grade students are enrolled in Christ the King’s TACHS preparatory class.
