Wednesday, December 19 – Regular Schedule, test in periods 4 (3rd block) and 6 (4th block)
Thursday, December 20 – Test in periods 1 (1st block), 2 (singleton), and 3 (2nd block). School will dismiss at 11:30 am.
Normal check-out/check-in and attendance procedures will apply. Students who are exempt from final exams will be coded for attendance in Skyward as exempt in the specific period. Attendance will be taken each period. Students who are absent in periods not testing will be marked absent regardless of exempt status. The exempt status only applies to the tested period.
Students will complete End of Course Exams in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, English I, English II, Biology I, and U.S. History. End of Course Exams are state exams and count 20% of the student’s final grade in the designated class. Final Exams in subjects without State EOC exams will count 20% of the final grade.
If a high school student has a “C” average or better in a class, two or fewer excused absences, and no more than two tardies (including the free tardy), he/she will be exempt from the final examination in that class.
It is also important to note that certain classes (honors, AP, DE, etc) are weighted with “rigor points”. (See page 24 of the Student Handbook under Uniform Grading Policy)
