The request must be approved by the Associate Principal of Academic Affairs and the teacher involved.

PowerSchool will be turned off on Friday, December 23 and turned back on Thursday, January 5. The purpose for turning off PowerSchool is to give students and staff a true break over the holiday.

Final Exam/Essays/Project/Presentation Policy
Final Exams/Essays/Projects/Presentations will be weighted 20% of the final grade in ALL classes except for some courses in Performing Arts and Art departments. All Final exams/Essays/Project/Presentations will be a common final assessment (exam, project, paper). This will be implemented in ALL courses. Exams need to be at least 75% the same for all students taking the course. The other 25% can be determined by each individual teacher.
