Day 4: Period 4 Exam
Day 5: Period 5 Exam

The particular dates of final exams can be found in the school website calendar.

Please note that all Final Exams at Bishop Ryan are written in classrooms (see your teacher for this information) and begin promptly at 8:15 a.m. Additionally, the following should be kept in mind:

*Students should be in the exam areas no later than 8:10 a.m.

*Missing an exam will result in a mark of zero (0). Students who are absent for an exam due to a medical reason must provide a doctor's note to a Vice-Principal prior to discussing a rescheduling of the exam - otherwise a mark of zero (0) will be allocated.

*Students must be in full uniform in order to write their final exam. No coats or bags should be brought to an examination location.

*Electronic devices are not permitted in the examination areas.

*All textbooks are to be returned to the course teacher prior to the exam.

*In the event of a school closure or bus cancellations (even if schools are open) exams will be pushed back to the next day (ex. Wednesday's exams will be written on Thursday). Please watch/listen to your local radio or television newscast for closures.

Students and parents should also access our "Exams" section under the "Learn" tab on the website. This area provides helpful tips and strategies for students writing final exams.

Good luck Celtics!
