Prep Week & Final Exams
Prep week is commonly referred to as the week before final exams in each semester which can be a stressful time for high school students who may need additional hours for studying or for completing a project. Students should use this time to prepare and to perform to their highest potential academically. If a potential conflict with this policy arises, administration will communicate all options with parents to determine what activities may be offered during these weeks.
Semester Exams
Exams must be taken at appointed times. Exam days are considered regular school days. Parents and students are not to schedule family vacations, trips or other activities during these days. The teacher’s decision is final with regard to exam exemptions. Administrative discretion will be exercised to determine if a situation warrants an exam being rescheduled.
Senior Exemption Policy
Subject to the teacher’s discretion, seniors with a semester class average of 94 or above before honors points are added may be exempt from the semester exam. The final exam grade will be determined by averaging the two nine week’s grades. The senior exemption policy applies to the second semester only for year long classes. Seniors may be exempt from a one-semester class final exam in either semester by meeting the same criteria as for year long classes. In addition to the 94 average, seniors requesting exemption from exams must be in good standing as deemed so by the administration.
