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.

Campbell Advanced Placement Scholars- CAPS The week of January 27 has been designated as the CAPS Campaign and Application Week!
IB News Schedules: As mentioned in the Remind message, we are still balancing classes based on numbers - the remaining changes are based on 10th grade math placement tests and 9th grade language placement tests. However, if a student is in the incorrect course, please have them go see the appropriate person (sent in the Remind message).
Seniors: Please verify that your student has submitted their final draft for their Extended Essay and set up their Viva Voce with their mentor. Any student who did not submit their final draft for the Extended Essay was to meet in person with Ms. Wood by Thursday, January 9th for an extension in order to remain in IB courses this semester and take exams in May. 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.
