The first semester of the 24/25 school year ends on Friday, Dec. 20. Nighthawks in all grades will participate in final exams the week of Dec. 16. Monday, Dec. 16 is a Late Start/Stripe Day. Tuesday through Friday, students will take two exams each day, if they have class during the specified periods. On these days, students will finish the school day at 10:35 a.m., followed by a Grab and Go Lunch option available until 11:30 a.m. Students may use the time between 10:35 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. for extended test time, makeups and/or support from teachers.
In preparation of final exams, Nighthawks are encouraged to participate in Northfield’s Final 30 offering. The Final 30 is held 3:25-3:55 p.m., Monday through Friday, when school is in session. The time is devoted to assisting students with assignments, assessments and tutoring, as well as mental health check-ins and club meetings. During this time, students should arrange a time and location to meet with their teacher, counselor and/or club sponsor.
Tutoring with City Year, an education nonprofit, is also available on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 4-5 p.m., in the Library. Northfield students are invited to take advantage of this tutoring option following the completion of a permission form by a parent/guardian.
For questions about final exams, please contact your student’s teachers.
