For a long time until now, midterms have been structured that you take one per day and you return home after completion, with the rest of the day to study for your next exam. Now, the midterms system has been changed- now, you not only have more than one midterm per day, but you also have to be present in all of your other classes throughout the day in between the midterms you have to take.
This not only creates an immense amount of extra stress for us as students, but it can lead to a negative effect on our mental health and our GRADES- balancing ONE midterm per day is enough stress! Now we have MORE THAN ONE IN A DAY, plus our OTHER CLASSES??
Does this make you frustrated? Stressed? You’re not alone. Sign this petition- put your name on the list- so midterms can return back to the way things were- and our mental health and grades can reach the levels they need to be. This petition is going to Mr. Thompson, the director of High School, so our voices can be heard on this essential issue!
How are we supposed to focus on regular classes when we have two huge exams on the same day? This is just setting us up to fail.
