Good Luck on Exams

How was the first day of exams? I hope you did well and are feeling prepared for the final two days of exams. Remember, if you have studied and done the work that necessary, you have nothing to be worried about. As you know, you earn credits based on your semester grades. Most classes are graded on a scale that gives 40% to your 3rd quarter grade, 40% to your 4th quarter grade, and 20% to your final exam and that cumulative grade is your semester grade which will appear on your transcript. With exams worth so much, it is often able to help you improve grades significantly.

As a reminder, if you did not pass a class during the 1st semester or if you do not pass any of your classes this semester, it is important to consider registering for summer school! It is particularly important to consider summer school if you have failed an English class since students must pass 4 full credits in order to graduate or a Math class since the content builds and you must pass both semesters of the class before you can progress on to the next math course. (Plus, current freshmen students must earn 4 full credits of math in order to graduate.) Summer school registration is still being accepted, but availability is limited and registration is taken in the order they are received. You were given summer school brochures back in February with the course registration materials, but if you need a new copy you can pick up an extra copy in the counseling center or you can download the materials on the Worthington Website.
