All students must report to their assigned exam on time. Students must take all exams unless they are exempt due to perfect attendance or Gold Card privileges (must maintain at least an A- for 2nd nine weeks). Students who are exempt are encouraged to take any exam if it will improve their semester average and GPA. If a student does not have an assigned exam they may leave the building or report to the cafeteria or Library. Bus students will report to the cafeteria until testing time. The cafeteria will also be available for those students who do not have an exam and are unable to leave. The library will be available for anyone interested in a quiet place to prepare for exams. Students will be served lunch in the cafeteria from 11:30-12:20 or they may leave for lunch.
