Our school policy is that all students must take finals exams except for seniors.

Seniors are exempt from 1st semester exams by passing all of their classes and meeting or exceeding on the Prairie State Achievement Exam (PSAE).

Second semester seniors are exempt if they have less than 30 “discipline points” and have missed no more than 7.5 days of school. Also, of course, they must be passing all of their classes.

Seniors must take exams in college classes however regardless of being exempt from the others.
