Freshman here :)
I'll be doing geometry in 9th grade but i want to speed up my math by doing trig as well in my first year ...
Are there any extended classes/ afternoon classes or even summer programs that would allow me to take both regents ?

I believe you need to pass Geometry first in order to move up to trig..

Summer courses are only offered to students who have failed the class - not for students who want to be super accelerated during the school year. It's just not possible to provide those options because there is barely money to run summer school as it is.

Nope not gonna work, you can't speed anything up by taking additional classes.

that's so typical of the overachieving freshman. you're already a year ahead in math, don't worry about it. you'll have two years of opportunity to take math electives.
you need to pass a year of geometry before moving to algebra 2/trigonometry.
the only way that you'll take trig in freshman year is if you get an 85 on the geometry regent prior to coming to tech.
tough luck, besides, you'll be suffering enough without taking junior math.

Most rising sophomores received really bad grades and/or cut in freshman year, accelerated or not.

I remember I got an ad in the mail about a tutoring school for the summer that lets you take advanced courses (trig, physics, ap's). You even take the regents in August. Of course, you'll have to pay. Try googling for something like that.

It's not as much of a problem with the regents as it is with getting Tech to accept the credits from that program.
