[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school calendar has underclassmen final exams scheduled on the last two days of school.  This seems odd given the half days and that seniors in the same classes would have graduated and been done by then.  Do any teachers know if this is accurate?  [b]In the past, the grades always seemed to be due prior to the last week.[/b]  [/quote]

You’re thinking of elementary school and possibly middle school then. High school has always worked this way. The exam is part of the final grade so grades cannot be due before the final exams. And final exams have always been scheduled up until the last day. So no leaving early for vacation this year. Sorry.[/quote]

Our high school did not have any testing the last week of school last year.  Kids just did fun end of school stuff.  Well deserved after all the AP exams and SOLs.  [/quote]

Which school? Every school I’ve worked at had finals, a project or presentation of some sort during final exam week.  That sounds like a waste of time and asking students to skip in HS.  - teacher [/quote]
