Final exams will be occurring from December 19th through December 21st.  Please reference the schedule listed on the school website () and posted on campus for specific dates, times, and locations of exams.  Here are some reminders regarding attendance, dress code, and the schedule during Finals:

• All students must be in regular daily uniform during final examinations.  Students not in uniform are subject to referral to the Dean for disciplinary action.  All school handbook policies apply on these days.

• The first exam begins at 8:25 a.m.  Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each exam.  Students should be on campus at least 15 minutes prior to their first exam of the day.

• Students must arrive to their designated classroom on time. Students who are late to an exam are marked as tardy, are not guaranteed additional time to complete that exam, and are subject to referral to the Dean for disciplinary action.

• If a student does not have a final exam during a designated examination date and time, that student is not required to be on campus.  However, once a student arrives on campus, he or she may not leave campus.  Students must remain on campus until their last exam for the day is finished.

• If a student is on campus, but not taking a final exam, the student must remain in the Heritage Room for the duration of the exam time.  Students may not wander the campus, congregate near the lockers, be in the BAC unsupervised, or engage in other activities that would distract those students that are taking exams.  Students in the Heritage Room must remain silent so as not to disturb other students taking exams.

• Students may not leave an exam room until the designated final exam time is over.  It is recommended that students bring study materials in case they finish their exam before the end of the period. Students should utilize the restrooms during the breaks before and between exams.

• Final exams are mandatory in the classes designated with a final exam.  If a student is ill or otherwise unable to complete a final exam, the student will receive an incomplete as the the grade in the course until the exam is taken.  December 22nd from 8:25AM - Noon is the designated day and time for make up exams to occur in the case of absences

Best of luck to all of our students on their Final Exams!  Please encourage students to get a good night’s sleep and to eat a healthy breakfast before their exams.  Lunch trucks will be available after the second exam of the day on all three days.
