Final Exam Exemptions

1.    Student attendance is calculated by period.  All absence codes except X-codes will count in the tally for exemption purposes.

2.    In the event that the number of absences does not match for each period, the greatest number is used in determining exemptions.

  
3.    Student exemptions will be allowed based on the following chart.  The number of absences is cumulative for the semester.  

4.    All teachers will participate in this exemption process. All classes will have a final exam on the final exam days.

5.    Students must have a passing grade (70 or better) as determined by the teacher to be exempt.

6.    Students who have spent a full day of in-school suspension, out-of-school suspension, or BTC will not be exempt and must take all finals. 

7.    Every three tardies noted for a class counts as one absence.
