I don't think so. Because the first semester (Semester A) is not affected by this new policy; only the second semester (Semester B) is.

MCPS? They will wait until close of business on the Friday before Spring break to do so. What did you expect?

Have they released any guidance on the end of the year Bio test and other tests required for Maryland graduation starting this year?
