UPDATE FOR THURSDAY JANUARY 26 EXAMS
Thursday January 26 has been declared an inclement weather day, which means that buses and period one examinations that were scheduled for January 26th will now be rescheduled for Wednesday, February 1st. The exams will start at the same time and within the same room as listed on the exam schedule. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to the school via email or telephone.
Soon students will concentrate on culminating assessments, final projects and final unit evaluations which may include in-class summative assessments. We will then enter into our semester one examination period from Thursday, January 26, 2023 to Tuesday, January 31, 2023.
All examinations start at 9:30 a.m. Please review the examination guidelines which are attached, and determine the days on which your child’s examinations are scheduled. All students must write their examinations at the scheduled time. Vacation, employment and/or appointments must not be scheduled during summative evaluations and the examination period. Students must be available throughout the examination schedule in the unforeseen event that any examinations need to be rescheduled due to a severe weather day. February 1, 2023 is held as an examination day to reschedule in the event of severe weather.
If students have a valid medical certificate detailing why they were unable to write the final summative and/or examination on the assigned day, the school’s administration team will support the student and make decisions on a case-by-case basis. Students must remain in the examination room for the first full hour. You may stay for an additional time as indicated on the examination schedule. Students are encouraged to bring all supplies that you will need to write their examinations. No items may be borrowed/shared during an examination.
After the examination:
1. Students are asked to leave the building as soon as their examination is completed. There is no cafeteria service during examination week and teachers require time to assess and evaluate your child’s examinations. If they are awaiting transportation, they will be permitted to wait quietly in the cafeteria.
2. Students have the right to review their completed examination after it has been evaluated. This opportunity is on the Examination Review Day which is on Thursday, February 2, 2023. Please see the schedule on the attached Guidelines for Students Information Sheet. We wish all our students good luck with their examinations and students are encouraged to seek feedback from their teachers regarding marks, any outstanding assignments and/or culminating projects prior to the examination period. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this information please contact our office at 905-476-0933.
