DRCSS Final Assessments Suspended

The DRCSS will be suspending all Final Assessments for Semester 1 and Semester 2 for the 2021-22 school year. This decision is in response to the uncertainties that Covid may have on our students and staff. We want to alleviate added anxiety on the part of both students and teachers. Our goal is to allow teachers to adapt classroom practices as the public health situation warrants. Lastly, we want to allow our teachers to be able to better respond to mental health and well-being concerns of students without any added pressures of a final assessment.
Final grades will be calculated at 100% of regular course work. There will not be a “final assessment week” in either semester. Students will attend until the last day of classes for each semester to learn and be assessed. February 3rd is the last day of classes for semester 1.
Please contact Mr. Casavant should you have any questions.
