Make-up Final Exam Protocol: - Students who miss a final exam must contact their teachers to inform them of their illness/absence and to confirm their attendance for the final exam makeup time within the first 10 days of Semester 2. Students will receive a zero until those exams are made up.
- Teachers, provide a list of your students who will miss the Final Exam and make up during the first 10 days of Semester 2 on the form below:
Students that missed the Final Exam Fall Semester FY25 - Teachers, upload your Final Exam to the folder
 2.0 Final Exams in the Campbell High Staff Site in SharePoint. - Upon return during Semester 2, the Student Success Center, will contact students who were placed on the Students that missed the Final Exam Fall Semester FY25 and facilitate the supervision of Final Exams the week of January 6, 2024.
- The Student Success Center will return the completed Final Exam to the teacher of record for grading, and the teacher will submit a grade change form to the Counseling Office to update the students’ transcripts.
- Coach Shaner and Mr. Whatley will facilitate this process. Contact Edward.Shaner@Cobbk12.org or anthony.whatley@cobbk12.org with questions regarding the Make-Up Final Exam Policy and Procedures.

 Schedules: As mentioned in the Remind message, we are still balancing classes based on numbers - while the district allows the first 10 days for schedule changes, our goal is to have them settled by the first week. We cannot change schedules based on a student's preference of teacher or block, so again, we ask that students do not reach out with these requests. However, if a student is in the incorrect course, please have them go see the appropriate person (sent in the Remind message).
Seniors: I know this is a bitter-sweet semester for parents. Students will turn in their final EE by Monday, January 6th and schedule their Viva Voce meeting with their mentor before the end of January. A reminder that any students not meeting deadlines or minimum grade requirements from the first semester run the risk of being pulled from IB exams and having their schedules changed.
Juniors: We know the first semester can be challenging for juniors as they familiarize themselves with IB-style content and assessments. Remind them that they are in this program because we know they are remarkable students who both want and can handle challenges! They can do this! Continue to encourage them to attend their teacher's tutoring sessions, set up study groups, and ask for help. They are in this program because
