STUDENTS MAY NOT TAKE A DAY OFF DURING THE WEEK OF FINALS unless it is for a doctor's appointment or another professional appointment. All absences during this week without a note from a professional will be counted as unexcused.

***Students will be given a progress report on Friday, December 11^th in their advisory class. The grades on this progress report will determine if a student must take finals due to grades. These grades are not the final grades in the course but the grade that will be used to determine finals exemption. If a student is not in advisory or absent that day, it is the student's responsibility to get the progress report and know if they are to take finals based on grades. ***
