Semester Exams
Please click button above to access semester exam schedule. Reminder, if your child is exempt for an exam, he or she may leave campus during that time. If your child is unable to leave during the exemption time, we will have a supervised location for students. Also, once your child leaves campuses they are not to return until a scheduled exam or attendance time.
If your child has questions about their attendance, the teacher is the first place they need to go. Attendance for exemptions is based on class period and not whole day attendance. Mrs. Weeks will have all absences updated in the system. This may or may not be reflected within parent portal due to how our system is designed.
