Exam Policies – Please review the following information with concerning final examinations requirements.
- Students are required to take the final examination in each course in which the student has a course grade of "D", or "F" in the 3rd nine weeks of the term or has a provisional course grade of "D", or "F" for the 4th nine weeks of the term. Students will also have to take exams in the class they miss more than 4 days in up to the last day before exams which will be Thursday May 22, 2025.
Students who have a course grade of "A", "B" or C in the 3rd nine weeks of the term and have a provisional course grade of "A", "B" or C in the 4th nine weeks of the term can choose to exempt up to 3 exams in the courses that they meet the eligibility for exam exemption. Students may not exempt the 2nd semester final exam if it is an Advance Placement (AP), IB, Advanced International Certificate of Education (AICE) exam, or courses that have an EOC attached to them.
- Students choosing to exempt the exam must maintain the required grade through the remainder of the 4th nine weeks of the term.
- The provisional 2nd nine weeks grade for the term will be based on the grades earned for the first 7 weeks of the fourth grading period. Please Inform students of their provisional 4th nine weeks grade by Friday May 9, 2025.
- A student enrolled in the same course during two terms of the same school year is required to take at least one final exam in that course.
- Students not required to take a final exam may elect to take their final examinations to improve their final grades. The final course grade shall not be reduced because of the examination grade, should the student elect this option.
- If a student is exempt from their exam (has been approved to not to take an exam), he/she will not have an exam grade, please use the X option for exempt when recording your grades under the semester 1 exam tab in Portal. These students’ final grades will be the average of the two nine week’s grades. These students may elect to take an exam that they have not been required to take, however these exams will not count toward the student’s final grade unless it raises the grade.
- If a student fails to appear for a semester examination, an “F” needs to be recorded in the semester exam tab and the “F” should be averaged in as the third grade when determining the final grade. A student does not automatically fail the course if they do not show for the final exam.
- EARLY EXAMS
Please have students who are wanting early exams to see their Administrator. These opportunities are not for early vacations.
