Overview: During the recent Middletown School Board meeting, discussions took place focusing on educational reforms, financial updates, and security improvements within the district. A key highlight was the announcement of changes to midterm and final exam structures at the high school level. These changes are driven by feedback from students and parents. The new policy reserves high-stakes assessments for advanced placement, dual enrollment, World Language, and selected core subjects. This revision means that students who previously faced up to eight exams may now experience a reduced burden. Additionally, 11th-grade students achieving an average of 90% or above will be exempt from final exams, expanding a privilege formerly available only to 12th graders. This adjustment is designed to alleviate pressure on juniors amidst their college preparation efforts.
