END OF COURSE EXAMS
|
Students enrolled in Algebra 1, Geometry and Biology will take End of Course exams during the last few weeks of school. End of Course exams (EOCs) are required for students to be eligible for a Washington State high school diploma. More information about EOCs can be found at the OSPI End of Course Exam Information page. The tests will be administered over the course of three days. Most students will be taking their tests in their math/science classrooms, during their math/science periods. The testing schedule is as follows: Algebra 1: Tuesday May 28, Wednesday, May 29, and Thursday May 30 Geometry: Tuesday May 28, Wednesday, May 29, and Thursday May 30 Biology: Tuesday June 4, Wednesday June 5, and Thursday June 6 As there will be no make-up testing for the EOCs, it is critical for your students to attend school on all three the days of the EOC testing. If they are absent and are unable to complete the test, there will be more opportunities to take it in its entirety in high school, but not during the current school year. |
