Lunch: Students should plan to eat prior to arriving to school if arriving just prior to the exam time. Students attending the whole day should eat 1st lunch.
Make sure to tell your coach or advisor that you will miss practice/games/meetings, if applicable.
Two exams in a day:
You will need to bring a bag lunch. You will have an opportunity to eat (quickly, ~ 15 minutes) in a designated area between exams. You might also consider bringing a "snack lunch" that you can space out and eat during the exam breaks and the break between tests.
All Exams:
Please be ready to go when you arrive! Pencils sharpened, stopped at the restroom, etc. Check the list of what to bring/not bring below. We will begin promptly!
Students cannot be dismissed early from an exam. All test takers must remain until all tests are collected and counted.
Students should bring with them only what is necessary for exams. In most testing rooms, we have very little extra space for student belongings.
On the day of their exam, students should only go to their exam. They are not required to attend regular classes.
