Will There be Semester Finals?
The short answer is “Yes.” With this year being a completely new format, we are discussing various options we have and what we hope to accomplish during the last week of the first semester. There is a desire for a culminating exam, or project, or extended writing to take place that week so that students have a chance to raise their final grade and demonstrate subject matter understanding. We are working with other TUSD high schools and our leadership team to create a schedule that meets several needs and will share the schedule as soon as we have it finalized.
