SEMESTER EXEMPTION POLICY
All students will take the 1st and 3rd 9 weeks cumulative exams, but students may be exempt from the 2nd and 4th 9 weeks exams if they meet the criteria below. Note: The exam exemption policy is based upon the previous 18 weeks attendance policy. This includes seniors for both terms.
- An A average and no more than 3 days absent*
- A B average and no more than 2 days absent*
- A C average and 1 day absent*
- A D with 0 absent*
On the 4th tardy to any class, the student would be required to take the exam.
*Excused absences DO count towards having to take semester exams.
Students will have the option of taking the comprehensive exam if they wish in order to improve their grade even if they meet the exemption criteria. If they choose to take the exam and it lowers their grade, it will not be counted against them.
Students in honors, AP and IB will continue to take comprehensive exams both semesters but will be exempt from attendance on scheduled exam days if they meet the criteria. Teachers will be allowed to test these students on the day before regular semester exams.
Exemption policy for transfer students: For test exemption eligibility purposes only, all days before the transfer from another school will count as excused absences. These days will not count as absences on the student’s attendance record; this is only to aid in determining test exemption eligibility.
If the student transfers from another class within CHS, the teacher will obtain attendance info from the previous teacher and the regular exemption policy applies.
If the student is a recent transfer and the teacher feels the student needs to complete work before taking the exam, the teacher has the option to give the the transfer student an incomplete but will set a specific date for the student to make-up their exam.
