Students with excellent attendance will be exempt from taking midterm/final exams and final projects. They may choose to take the final to improve their grade in the course. Exemption is determined for each class by the total number of absences in that class for the semester, whether excused or unexcused, according to the following guidelines:

A (90-100) semester average and 4 or fewer absences
B (80-89) semester average and 3 or fewer absences
C (70-79) semester average and 2 or fewer absences
D (60-69) semester average and 1 or fewer absences

Students who are exempt from a class exam do not need to attend school during that exam period, and the exam grade will not count against them. Students who are not taking exams must be present for at least half of the day to be counted present.
