GENERAL

  1. Students in Grade 10 -12 need only attend school for scheduled exams after the last day of class. Teachers are available this week to offer tutorial sessions and provide individual help.
  2. Students in Grade 10-12 may leave the school when they have completed the exam.  To limit distractions during exams we ask that students stay out of the hallways at any time while exams are being written.
  3. Students not in attendance for their final and mid-term exams may receive a grade of zero.  
  4. Students are not permitted to talk, whisper, or communicate non-verbally during exams. 
  5. Course materials (ie. Texts, review booklets, etc.), will be returned to the classroom teacher prior to beginning the exam.  
  6. Students are requested to be in the exam room 15 minutes before exams begin (20 minutes when writing on computer).  
  7. Students may bring bottled water if they desire and a quiet snack. 
  8. All digital devices, other than approved calculators, must be stored in a teacher designated area. 
  9. Exams for courses not listed in this schedule may be written in class.
