Examinations: Final examinations will be given only in 7th and 8th grade. Examinations should require no less than an hour-and-a-half, but not more than three hours. Final examinations should be a comprehensive assessment of the aims of the course. Examination grades in the middle school are weighted to the following schedule:
7th grade: 20% of the trimester grade
8th grade- 25% of the trimester grade
Additional time will be afforded to those students who qualify and whose qualifications are documented.
