Hello GRCI Families,

It’s that time in the school year, Semester 2 is drawing to a close. The WRDSB Exam and Evaluation schedule for the end of Semester 2 will occur from June 24th to June 26th. Teachers have the flexibility to provide a variety of methods for students to demonstrate their growth, and confirm their learning. Classroom teachers will clearly communicate with their students and their families what the learning expectations are on these days.

There are a few important things to note during this Exam and Evaluation schedule

  • Busing: school buses run on their regular schedule during these three days.
  • Study Areas: the library will be open for those who wish to engage in quiet study. The cafeteria seating area will also be open for those who need to work collaboratively together.
  • Credit Rescue: any students (of any grade) may be required by their teacher to attend during their scheduled time to finish incomplete evaluations/assessments even if they do not have a class exam or evaluation scheduled.
  • Exams: will only be administered in select grade 11 and 12 courses. All exams will be 75 minutes in length. Students will have up to double time (150 minutes) to complete exams.
  • Final Evaluations: for all grades may include performance based tasks, portfolios, demonstrations, projects, exit interviews, conferences, and exams.
  • ACE Students: will attend school with regular programming.
