Exemptions for Semester Courses

Students in a semester course may be exempted if the following criteria are met:

 

Attendance     Semester Average
No absences      70­ and above
1 absence           80 and above
2 absences         90 and above

 

Students who are eligible for exemption will have the option to take an exam if they feel it will improve their grade.

All absences will be counted except those that are school related such as athletic, band, choir contests or school-­based club trips. It is the student’s responsibility to provide documentation of any school-related absence. Students who receive an out­-of-­school suspension at any time during the year will NOT be exempt from any exam.

 

For the purpose of exam exemption, three (3) tardies = 1 absence. 

 

Students with missing work are ineligible for exemption from taking exams.

 

Students shall not be informed of their exemption status until the day prior to the exam schedule beginning. Students are expected to attend class on review days.
