Emergency Exan Rescheduling and Managing Stress

Please remember to take care of yourself during the final exam period. Be sure to get adequate rest and to take intermittent breaks while studying. Leave time for meals and exercise.

The final exam period is from Saturday, December 10th through Friday, December 23rd. A student who cannot take an exam because of illness, injury, inclement weather or a family issue must contact me on the morning of the exam. Please call or text me at the numbers below. I will be at school every day by 8 a.m. during exam period, including weekends. On Saturdays and Sundays, I will stay at school until at least 4 p.m. I am available to meet during the exam period as well. Please contact me if you would like to schedule a time to meet.

Emergency Exam Rescheduling

Contact me on the morning of the exam if an extraordinary issue precludes you from taking an exam. I will respond to message during the morning. If you become very ill overnight or the morning of an exam, contact me and stay home.  We can reschedule exams when a person has a compelling reason, including illness. A student whose exam is rescheduled because of a compelling reason will be required to supply documentation of the issue that necessitated the rescheduled exam, including illness or a death in the family .
