Clarification on semester test options for ACSD

During the Feb. 21 meeting of the Allamakee Community School District Board of Education, an informational presentation was given on the removal of the high school's current semester test option. The decision to require semester exams for all students was reached by a committee of high school faculty members and reported to the board as an informational item only.

No official decision has been made, however, plans are that all students will be required to take semester tests beginning in the first semester of the 2005/2006 year.
