Student Exam/Culminating Activities Information

Exam/Culminating Activities Schedule 

Confirm your exam/culminating activity date (if applicable) with your classroom teacher. Record the date and time in your cell phone calendar. Plan to be at school at least fifteen minutes prior to the beginning of the exam/culminating activity. All written exams begin at 8:20 a.m. 

Transportation

Buses will maintain their regular schedule.

Absence 

Students should not be absent during the exam period for family vacations. Illness is the only legitimate reason to be absent for an exam. In the event of illness, you should telephone the school office (905) 294-1886. Information required will be the subject, grade and teacher name. An administrator will reach out with next steps 

Lateness 

If you are less than 15 minutes late, please report directly to the exam. If you are more than 15 minutes late, please report to the main office. 

No Materials Brought In 

Notes and paper are not to be brought in to the exam room, unless previously confirmed by the classroom teacher. Backpacks, binders and jackets should be left in lockers; they are not to be brought to the exam room. Electronic devices (including cell phones and music devices) are not permitted in exam rooms. 

Consequences of Inappropriate Behaviour 

Students not adhering to the rules and conditions of the exam area will be brought to the office by a staff member. 

Upon completion of your exam/culminating activity 

Once students have completed their exam/culminating activity, they are expected to exit the building or wait quietly in the cafeteria until they depart. Students are not permitted to be in the halls as other exams/culminating activities may still be in progress. 

Severe/Inclement Weather and Transportation 

In the event of bus cancellation because of storm conditions, examinations for that day only will be rescheduled. All other examinations will be written as scheduled. If an exam has to be rescheduled due to inclement weather, the exams for that date will be rescheduled to a date to be advised. 

When the decision about school transportation and school closures is made, the board does so as early as possible, and no later than 6:00 a.m. The YRDSB will do their best to notify families in advance when they may be considering closing school and Board offices. Transportation cancellations or school closures are communicated. 

Exam Feedback Day 

This is a modified school day (schedule below). Attendance will be taken. This is the only opportunity for students to review their final exams with their teachers.
