Semester Exam Policy & Information

It is our policy to follow the Monroe County Policy:
 
Academic Card Holders are exempt from semester exams but must maintain at least a “B” average per class with no unexcused absences per class. The student may have no more than two excused (2) absences. Any student with a minimum 70 average will be exempt from a course semester exam if that student has no more than 1 excused absence in that course. Students with any unexcused absence or absences due to disciplinary action (includes Interim Alternative Educational Setting IAES and alternative school) are not eligible for exemptions.
 
Block courses with an EOC ​this​ semester are ​not ​required to give a semester exam. All other courses are required to give a semester exam.​ ​There is no provision for teacher discretion regarding administration of the semester exams​. ​Follow the exemption criteria listed below.​ ​Completed /graded semester exams are to be filed in the office at the end of the testing week. Exams should be a ​comprehensive assessment of objectives c​overed. ​The student must take the exam on the designated day/time. Administration must approve any deviations.
