Exam Exemption Policy

 

Students not enrolled in classes requiring EOC or VOCATS testing may be exempt from final exams.

 

To be exempt a student must satisfy the following grading/absence criteria:
Grade
Absences
A = 93-100
3
B = 85-92
2
C = 77-84
1
D = 70-76
No exemption
F = Below 70
No exemption

·       2 unexcused tardies = 1 absence

·       If student takes AP exam – exempted from exam in that AP class.

·       No ISS or OSS for the semester in which the class is held.

·       School sponsored activities or administrator approved college visits will not count against the student’s attendance.

·       Exemption due to medical reasons will be at the discretion of the principal.

 

** For exam exemption purposes, a final semester average is calculated by adding the semester’s 1st 9 weeks and the 2nd 9 weeks grade and dividing by 2.  This calculation will be done the day prior to the first exam day each semester.

 

** Exams count as 25% of the student’s final semester average.
