SEMESTER EXAMS start Friday with 1st & 2nd-hour exams. All students are expected to stay in school for the entire afternoon. If you leave early, it will be an unexcused absence. Monday & Tuesday will be early release days for students. After the second exam, students will have an opportunity to eat lunch prior to getting on their bus or leaving campus. Buses usually depart at 12:00. We only have 1 exam on Wednesday. Students who want to leave after that exam must have the early release form signed and turned in by Monday. Lunch will start around 10:00 for any student who does not leave after the exam. Students will remain in the cafeteria and media center until their buses or ride arrives.
