FINAL EXAMINATION POLICY:
Final examinations will be given in all classes. Parents are expected to call in excuses by 10:00 AM on the day of the absence. Final examinations are given during the last three days of each semester and are scheduled for two (2) hours each. No one will be exempted from a final exam. Final exams are administered under the following conditions:
Final exams are to be given during the scheduled exam period. By School Board Policy, no exam is to be given early, without exception.
The office will check all absences. Only legitimate unavoidable absences will be excused.
There will be no passes during final exams and students will not be allowed to leave early.
If a final examination must be missed, the exam will be given after the scheduled time by arrangement with the teacher. If a student is withdrawing from school early, School Board policy will determine the circumstances and requirements for completion of the semester. The counseling department is available to assist students in this case.
AK STAR REPORTS
Parents and/or Guardians,
In the spring of 2022, students in grades 3-9 took the AK STAR state assessment in the areas of English Language Arts (ELA) and Math. Also, students in grades 5, 8, and 10 took the Alaska Science Assessment. These tests assess students' understanding of the Alaska ELA, Math, and Science Standards. The results are now available. Check out this video for more information.
To view reports with district and school results, visit www.k12northstar.org/Page/11418. To view your student's individual reports, login to PowerSchool and select "Student Records" and "Student File" from the menu options. Please note, the reports can only be viewed through the PowerSchool guardian account and only when using a web browser.
More information about the reports can be found in the Family Guides for AK STAR and the Alaska Science Assessment. If you have questions, please contact your child's school or Teaching and Learning at (907) 452-2000 ext. 11422.
