Fall Exam Week is  December 17-20!

Students will be taking semester final exams Tuesday, December 17 through Friday, December 20 with a modified bell schedule. School will begin at 9:05 a.m. and dismissal will be at 1:15 p.m.

 

❄️ Exam Week Info ❄️

 

📚 Tutorials: Tutorials will be available both mornings and afternoons during Exam Week. Morning Tutorials will be from 8:15-9:00 a.m. and Afternoon Tutorials will be available from 2:15-3:15 p.m. Students returning to campus at 2:15 for tutorials will enter through the Front Office.

 

🍽️ Lunches: Lunch will be provided each day in a more “portable” form to allow bus riders the opportunity to get lunch before leaving school and take it with them. Please make sure that if you do get a lunch, you throw away all trash and not litter the ground outside with discarded lunch items.

 

🎒 Bag Policy: Beginning Tuesday and continuing for the entire week of semester finals, students will NOT be allowed to bring a backpack to campus. If you bring a backpack to campus, you will be asked to leave it in B118 until dismissal. Athletes who need their bags for practice will be allowed to put their bags in the locker room and collect them before practice at either Shepton or Plano West.

 

During Exam Week - All purses and lunchboxes are subject to being looked through upon entering campus. Clear ziplock baggies are the best to bring needed items in!

 

📴 Electronic Devices: ALL Cell Phones and Smart Watches need to be turned in to your teacher at the beginning of each exam. No headphones/earbuds are allowed.

 

📅 Absences: If your student is going to miss any part of Exam Week, you need to get your absence approved through the Attendance Office before any makeup exams can be scheduled. Forms may be picked up from the Attendance Office and must be filled out by your parent/guardian.

Please contact your student's teacher or assistant principal with specific questions. Study hard, Wolfpack! You got this!
