What About Multi-Day Exams, Projects, or Essays?

For classes with longer assessments, the scheduled exam day will typically be the final due date. Teachers have flexibility to administer multi-day finals and will also provide meaningful assignments on the scheduled final day.

For example, a long essay might be turned in early, but students could be asked to reflect on their work, complete a self-assessment, or give a presentation on the final exam day.

What Happens on "Non-Test" Days?

Teachers will use these days for:

• Review and preparation before exams
• Extended time or makeup tests
• Career exploration activities
• Engaging lessons that didn’t fit earlier in the year

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. We appreciate your support in helping students finish the semester strong!
