Final Exam Waiver Opportunity 

We are excited to share that the Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School faculty and administration have once again adjusted final exam requirements for courses that already include an end-of-course assessment structure. Students will have the option to waive the required final exam for courses where significant data points are already available to teachers, students, and families.   Students will also still be given the opportunity to take the final exam for any course if they and the teacher agree that it is in the student’s best interest to demonstrate achievement and learning. We believe this change will positively impact students and reduce their time spent preparing for exams where sufficient evidence of learning exists.  

Courses Eligible for Final Exam Waiver Include:

• All College Board Advanced Placement courses
• College Credit Plus English 1020
• College Credit Plus Calculus 2023  

Ohio State Test-Assessed Courses (EOCs)

• Block, Academic, and Algebra I Lab
• Block, Academic English Language Arts 10, and Honors American Lit
• Block, Academic Geometry, and Honors Geometry  
• Academic Biology and Honors Biology 
• Academic Government and Honors American Government
• Academic American History and Honors Academic History 

Advanced Placement and CCP Course Final Exam Waiver Structure 

To ensure students are well prepared for their Advanced Placement exam and to qualify for the final exam waiver, the student must demonstrate/agree to the following criteria for exam waiver consideration for Advanced Placement courses: 

• Students must take the Advanced Placement exam for the associated course
• Students must be on track to earn a C or better for the final grade in the course
• Agree that the 4th quarter grade is “carried over” and factored into the student's final grade
• Students will have the opportunity to take a final exam at their request during the regularly scheduled exam period for the course*

Ohio State Test-Assessed Courses 

Students taking courses with an Ohio State Test component can also waive the final exam requirement. To ensure students are well prepared for their Ohio State Test and to qualify for the final exam waiver, the student must demonstrate/agree to the following criteria for exam waiver consideration for all scheduled Ohio State Test courses:

• Students must take the Ohio State Test as scheduled for the associated course
• Students must be on track to earn a C or better for the final grade in the course 
• Students must earn a score of a 5, 4, 3, or 2 on their Ohio State Exam (students scoring a 1 must take the scheduled exam)

Students will have the following options to select from to determine their final exam grade:

• Tie Final Exam grade tied to the earned EOC score (5-A, 4-B, 3-C, 2-D, 1-must take final)

-or-

• 4th Quarter Grade Extends to Final Exam grade
• Students will have the opportunity to take a final exam at their request during the regularly scheduled exam period for the course*

Ohio State Test and Advanced Placement Testing

Brecksville-Broadview Heights High School will begin administering our required Ohio State Tests (EOCs) and College Board Advanced Placement Assessments during April and May. The Ohio State Testing assessment and bell schedules are included below (for delayed start dates). Please note that we will have four days of delayed starts on April 16th, April 17th, April 22nd, and April 23rd. If needed, students will be permitted to arrive at school and have a monitored study hall during the testing period on the delayed start days. Transportation and cafeteria services will run as regularly scheduled on the delayed test dates.

In addition, many of our Advanced Placement teachers will be running practice test sessions or study assistance on these dates for students not scheduled to take an Ohio State Test, which students may be required to attend by their teacher. Staff will communicate their expectations to students required to attend these AP test preparation periods on the delayed start days.

Starting in May, students registered to take Advanced Placement (AP) assessments will receive their AP testing letter when returning from Spring Break. This letter will include directions for AP testing and all requirements that students must follow per College Board guidelines. Please have your child be on the lookout for this important email as we return from Spring Break.
