Wrapping Up the Year: Summer 2025 Exam Schedule
Hello Dr. Folkins Families,
As we move into the final stretch of the school year, I want to thank you for your continued support. It's been a great year of growth, connection, and learning here at Dr. Folkins Community School, and we're proud of all that our students have accomplished.
Summer 2025 Exam Schedule
Attached to this blog post, you’ll find a copy of the Summer 2025 Exam Schedule. Please take some time to review it with your child and help them prepare for these important days.
Preparing for Success: Study & Wellness Tips
To support your child during this time, here are a few simple but effective ways to help them feel ready and confident:
- Set a Study Plan: Encourage your child to review material a little each day leading up to exams rather than cramming the night before. Short, focused sessions with breaks in between work better than cramming the night before.
- Prioritize Sleep: A good night’s rest is essential. Try to maintain a consistent bedtime, especially the night before each exam.
- Fuel the Brain: A healthy breakfast can make a big difference. Include foods with protein, whole grains, and fruit to help your child stay focused and energized. Snacking durring exams is also encouraged.
What Happens After Exams?
Although exams mark a key milestone, learning doesn’t end there. Our programming for students in Grades 7–9 will continue until the last day of school, June 26th. During this time, our junior high students will take on meaningful leadership roles by supporting younger students in our K–6 classrooms. This is a wonderful opportunity for them to grow in confidence and contribute to our school community in a positive way.
If your child is unable to attend school at any time after their exams, we ask that you please continue to call the office and report their absence, just as you would during the rest of the school year.
Let’s finish strong together!
