This year, during the week of December 16th-20th, BMS students will be taking midterms over everything learned during the first semester in each of their classes. The midterms will not count as heavily in the semester grade like high school - each midterm will count as a grade for the 3rd six weeks and not as 1/7 of their semester grade.
Teachers will be analyzing the data from the midterms to reteach and/or provide intervention as necessary during January for any content and/or skill that students have not mastered from first semester. If a student is absent during the week of midterms and does not have the opportunity to make-up the test, the student will receive an incomplete for the 3rd six weeks and will need to make-up the test the first week in January. As a result, it will be important that students are present at school everyday during the last week of the semester. Students will not be allowed to take a test early due to absences.
