School During Exam Week

  Other schools are closed during exam week in January EXCEPT NCHS! Not only is this stressful for the students who are taking the exams, but also the teachers. No one likes this change. Students taking the exams have to miss out and fall behind in classes, and teachers have to find other teachers to either proctor their exam or teach their class. Also, the teachers have to grade the exams and classwork. I'm sure everyone would appreciate the much needed break from school. But, alas, good Ol' Mr. Buggs thinks otherwise. I'm not saying anything bad about him, I'm just saying that this wasn't a wise decision. I'm sure what one week of school would do seeing as though it is only stressful. It's not like we started the new semester, so a lot of the High schoolers are having unnecessary study halls instead of doing something productive.

  1. I completely agree. Having to take a regents exam, then go right back to class is too much. These students miss work in classes that actually choose to continue lesson plans as well, which is unfair too.

  2. If I wasn't on lock down and had to come to school I surely would have not came to school this week
