This is a message from Purnell Swett High School Parents, This is a message to remind you that EOC, CTE, and final exams will begin this Monday, June 5, 2023. Listen carefully to the following testing schedule: First period will test Monday, June 5th, Second period will test Tuesday, June 6th, Third period will test Wednesday, June 7th, and Fourth period will test Thursday, June 8th. Any student failing to take an exam will receive a zero for the exam grade which counts for 25% of their final grade. School will release at 1:30 Monday - Thursday and 1:00 Friday. During the testing schedule, there will not be any early dismissals or sign-outs. This is the same process we used last semester. The testing environment has to be protected in an effort for all students to receive a fair chance at doing well on their exams. So, please don't come to school expecting to pick up your child before 1:30 pm. Parents I need your help in making your child understand that pick ups will not be allowed. Thanks and have a great night.
