Please read the important information below concerning how exams are run in January at St. Dominic Catholic High School.
For Grade 9 students:
Students continue with regular classes, with some exam preparation built into their schedule. Final exams for grade 9 students will only include two Provincial Achievement Tests (PAT); Social 9, and Science 9, and will happen according schedule as established through Alberta Education.
For High School students:
The last day of regular classes for high school students only is Wednesday Jan 18, 2023. From Jan 19 - Jan 27, students are welcome in the building for independent study, but are only required to be present if they have a final exam.
Exam Weighting:
In order to be consistent with the current provincial standard set for Diploma Examinations by Alberta Education, all finals will be given a course weighting of 20%. This change is regarded as a balance between requiring students to be tested on the content of the entire course, and considering the anxiety and mental health of our students.
