Dear Parents and Students,
We can look ahead now to the last three weeks of school. Next week, seniors have their last classes and final exams, and AP and IB exams finish. Prom is May 21st. The following week is both Senior Week and Revision week, as seniors spend their final week together before graduation on the 28th, and 9th, 10th and 11th graders finish their coursework and prepare for final exams. Final exams take place May 30 - June 3rd, and then we say goodbye until next school year, which starts on August 2nd!
