**All students present must be picked up by 11:30.
*Students must stay until the end of the block for the test they are taking. They are not allowed to call home to say they are finished and for someone to pick them up then. On Thursday, students need to communicate with their parents to be picked up at either 9:44 or 11:20, depending on if they are taking one or both exams. On Friday, every student taking the ELA exam will only be allowed to be picked up at 9:44 when the bell rings.
**For students who may still be here after that last exam and want lunch, they will be allowed to go through the McBride line before going home.
OTHER INFORMATION:
If students have exempted exams, they do not have to be at school on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. If a student comes to school on the review and exam days, he/she will be required to do the review and take the exam(s).
On exam review and exam days, they only have to come during the time of the exam they have to take. For example, on review day, if they only have to take the ELA exam, that is the only time they come on review day. STUDENTS DO NOT NEED TO CHECK IN OR OUT AT THE OFFICE on review or exam days. If students, for example, have exempted a first block exam but have to take a second block exam, they are to come at the designated time for the second block exam and GO STRAIGHT TO THEIR 2ND BLOCK CLASS. There is no need for students to go by the office at all. They go directly to their classes and then can leave at the time that is designated at the end of the exam.
Parents must make arrangements to pick their child up at school no later than 11:20 am (11:30 am if the student is eating lunch) on both exam days (possibly earlier depending on what time your child’s exams conclude). Parents and/or students do not need to go by the office for pick up. The office will not be able to call students out of exams nor will students be allowed to check out for any reason during exams. Students are not allowed to leave when they finish the exam early. They will be allowed to leave at the end of that block when the bell rings. Therefore, there is no reason for them to have to text or call to say they are finished with an exam. For example, if they are taking only the math exam on Thursday, they will need to be picked up at 9:44, not any earlier, even if they complete the exam before that time.
