High School Final Exam Schedule for May 2024
We know the end of the school year can be hectic, especially when all the big tests pile up at once.
To make it easier for you and your child, the teachers have come up with a schedule for high school final exams in May 2024.
The aim is to spread out the exams over four days, so it's not too overwhelming.
Wednesday, May 15:
Final exams Blocks 3 & 4
Regular classes for Blocks 1 & 2
Thursday, May 16:
Final exams Blocks 7 & 8
Regular classes for Blocks 5 & 6

Last day of school, students dismissed at 12:30 😎
📌 What about classes with tests that take more than one day?
Teachers will handle those separately, giving the test over a couple of days before the official finals schedule. On the scheduled final day, they'll give students other meaningful activities and assignments. For instance, if there's an essay to be done, students might turn it in early and then give a related presentation during the scheduled final.
What will teachers do on the "normal" days during the finals schedule?
They'll use the time to review and prepare for the test, offer extra time or makeup opportunities after the test, and do engaging activities related to the subject. They might also introduce topics from future courses or explore career options in the field.
📌 What about the seniors?
Seniors will have their tests during the second to last week, just like usual.
📌And what about classes with both seniors and underclassmen?
It's up to the teacher. They might have everyone take the final together and keep the underclassmen occupied during the finals schedule, or they might arrange for seniors to take the final early and underclassmen to take it during the scheduled finals.

As we begin wrapping up this school year, we wanted to remind you that Thursday, May 23rd will have a completely different schedule aimed at returning Chromebooks and cleanup. School will close at 12:30. Should you need to pick your child up early or if they will be absent, simply call Mrs. Anderson at 970-339-9153.
7:30 am -12:30 pm - Students will have time designated for Chromebook collection, yearbook pickup/signing as well as time outside playing games, so bring sunscreen and water! Lunch will NOT be provided.
Be sure your child brings their school-issued Chromebook to school. Over the summer, we will perform maintenance and updates. This will be returned to your child during registration at the end of July.
Keep the Chromebook charger in a safe place at home* over the summer so it is ready to go once the computer is returned to your student during registration in July. If you don’t bring it to school on August 5th, 2024, you will need to be prepared to purchase a charger. All school Chromebooks use a Chromebook USB C-type charger (65W). *IF your student will not be returning to Frontier next school year, please return the charger along with the Chromebook.
BACKUP CHROMEBOOK COLLECTION DAY- Friday, May 24th: 10:00 am-12:00 pm - We will collect any remaining Chromebooks that were not brought back on Thursday. This will be an outdoor/drive-up station and will move indoors if weather conditions are poor.
July 23-24:
When families return to school to get lockers, and class schedules, and pay fees, we will return the student’s device to them. We ask families to provide a simple protective sleeve or case for the Chromebook, to minimize the chances of accidental damage.
