The January 2001 final exams introduced the school's new policy of senior exemption.
Students seem unanimous in their approval of the program.
Some members of the faculty and parents disapprove of it being implemented. To me a final exam is a cumulative experience of a semester. Students missing this experience miss the synthesis of the entire semester. Also, our students need practice in these longer assessments to prepare for freshman year of college when these students are given two exams for the entire year they may not be prepared. Although exemptions make my work load less I still believe the students needs come first.
