Return of Texts:
Teachers of semester classes should make arrangements with the library to complete this task.  If taking whole classes to the library during finals, please remember to move quietly through the halls.

Guidelines for Students:
In an effort to maintain a quiet testing atmosphere, please follow these guidelines:
  • Students are to remain in the classroom for the entire scheduled period.
  • Students are not to be given hall passes during exam periods.
  • There are 20 minute scheduled breaks for snacks and restroom use between each final exam.

*Dear Students,

*I am concerned that some of you are not doing your reading for your group. I am asking you to please honor your group and have the integrity within yourself to please read and finish your book this weekend.
*Also, it's often apparent when a student has not read a book and reads Cliff Notes instead, so please read your book--this is preparing you for AP Literature, and most likely, you won't be able to write on a novel for an AP prompt that you haven't actually read.

Let's not go down the consequence path, yuck, yuck, double yuck!

Ms. J
