The New Finals Schedule

The new finals schedule is causing uproar among High School students. Instead of the traditional schedule where students took two finals each of the first two days and filled the remainder of their schedule with one hour class periods, then took their last three finals on the third day of finals, students will follow the new schedule which is as follows:

Thursday

8-8:30 – 8 a.m. Class

8:35-9:05 – 9 a.m. Class

9:10 – 9:40 – 10 a.m. Class

9:45 – 10:15 – 11 a.m. Class

10:20 – 10:50 – 12 p.m. Class

10:55 – 11:25 – 1 p.m. Class

11:30 – 12 – 2 p.m. Class

12 – 1 – Lunch

1-3 – 8 a.m. Final

Friday

8-10 – 9 a.m. Final

10-12 – 10 a.m. Final

12-1 – Lunch

1-3 – 11 a.m. Final

Monday

8-10 – 12 p.m. Final

10-12 – 1 p.m. Final

12 – 1-Lunch

1- 3 – 2 p.m. Final

Some upperclassmen are critical of the new schedule after following the old one for the past 7 semesters. Burris Senior Hannah Badger said, “I liked the old schedule better.” Hopefully the new schedule will allow students more time for studying and will give better final results.
