Final Exam Exemption Information
Students may pick up exemption forms from their house office beginning Wednesday, December 7th. Students may turn in forms to the House office beginning Thursday, December 8th and until 4:15 p.m. on Friday, December 10th. Students will not be allowed to leave class to go to the office to get a form.
Semester exams will be independent and objective assessments to certify mastery of course content by students. All high school credit course semester exams may be comprehensive and must measure the mastery of the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills. Semester exams shall count 15% of the grade. Semester exams are final and are not subject to retesting.
A student may earn exemptions based on his or her grade classification by having a semester average of 80 or higher in the class for which the student is seeking an exam exemption, and two or fewer absences in the class for which the student is seeking an exam exemption prior to the day of the semester exam. All absences are counted per class period whether excused or unexcused with the following documented exceptions: participation in school-sponsored activities, religious holy days, and pre-approved college visits.
- Freshmen - 1 exam exemption per semester
- Sophomores - 2 exam exemptions per semester
- Juniors - 3 exam exemptions per semester
- Seniors - 4 exam exemptions per semester
Students who have a DAEP placement, JJAEP placement, or in-school or out-of-school suspension are not eligible for exemption. If a student does not meet standard on an EOC in the previous year, he/she is not eligible for exemption in the corresponding course.
Students are required to attend classes in which they are exempt on examination days. An exemption is an exam exemption and not an attendance exemption. Students receiving exemptions are encouraged to take the examination and have it scored. If the examination score will improve a student’s grade average, it will be calculated as part of the semester average. Otherwise, the examination grade will not be counted.
