IV. Student Absences and Make-up Exams
Students who are absent from a Final Exam are required to immediately provide medical verification on doctor's stationery. Please note this does not extend to Regents exams. The doctor's note should be scanned (or take a photo) and attached to this Google Form. The High School Administration will determine student eligibility for make-up exams and reserves the right to grant such opportunity in unique and/or extenuating circumstances (see Student Handbook). Unless told otherwise, students who hand in notes should plan to take missed exams in the HS Library at 8:00 AM on Tuesday, June 24th. No make-up exams will be given after Wednesday, June 25th unless special arrangements are made between student and teacher.
NO MAKE UP EXAMS WILL BE PERMITTED DUE TO A MISUNDERSTANDING OF THE EXAM or BUS SCHEDULE or for LATENESS. Please ask in advance if you have questions or if you need clarification.
-Unexcused absences from midterms/finals result in a grade of zero.
-Absences from New York State Regents cannot be made up until the next scheduled administration in August 2025 or January 2026.
Conflict Room (Library/Media Center)
Students and parents should immediately review the testing schedule for conflicts (more than one exam at a time/overlapping exam) and these should be reported to the students’ classroom teachers.
Students should have a discussion with their teachers and guidance counselors in an attempt to develop a sensible plan to avoid any testing conflict. This may include taking one of the exams at an alternate time. On the day of the test, all Regents Exams are the priority and must be administered first.
In the event that the exam conflict cannot be avoided, students should report to the designated testing site for the first exam with all other students. Upon completion of the exam, the student should quietly raise his/her hand, identify to the proctor that he/she has to take another exam in the conflict room (Library/Media Center) and then be escorted there. Students should consider bringing lunch, or a snack if appropriate.
