I honestly don't know the material because our teachers haven't been given the time to explain things.

Taking exams would disadvantage Maggie Walker students. Henrico replaced exams with full school days, giving them more instructional time to prepare for APs. Additionally, exams are the last grades to be put in for seniors before transcripts are sent to colleges; exams rarely help grades, so counties that did not require their senior students to take exams will have an advantage over Maggie Walker seniors.

I have so many tests and quizzes and projects prior to exams next week I barely have enough time to study!! Especially since we missed three days of learning due to the snow it pushed back all my classes.

Exams are very stressful for all students, and usually only hurt a students semester grade. Most teachers have not yet taught all material on the exams, and this week we have a ridiculous number of tests/quizzes.

Well quite frankly, midterms defeat the purpose of learning, turning the first semester's material into "bathtub knowledge". Instead of building connections between the different things we learn in class, midterms force students to purely MEMORIZE and subsequently drain that knowledge to make room for the next day's tests. Without these exams, students are able to see the year as a whole rather than compartmentalizing everything into 1st+2nd semester b/c of the tantalizing promise of "it won't be on the final".

Midterms are stressful and would destroy my grade whether or not I study

Many of my teachers, and many of my peers, are already burdened with the huge stress of being so behind in the curriculum because of the storm. Why burden them more? Honestly, Maggie Walker and Henrico need to get with the rest of the surrounding schools, like in Chesterfield and RPS, and start doing exams BEFORE winter break. No chance of snow postponement and stress, and a much more relaxing break!
