IB & AP Exams Schedule

We are quickly nearing the end of another school year. AP Exams begin May 6 and IB Exams begin May 7! 
 

Note: Semester final exams will be held May 28-31, dates coming soon. 
Volunteer Room Monitors Needed During IB Exams

Our IB Seniors will be sitting for their final IB Exams between May 7 and May 24. IB Exams are given off-site at St. Patrick's Church Hall.  Volunteers are needed to monitor the room where students drop off their backpacks, lunches and congregate before and after their exams.  Having a parent monitor the holding room ensures a smooth exam process and provides peace of mind for our students. Volunteers may bring work or reading materials during their volunteer time.  Parent volunteers from any grade level are encouraged to signup to assist.  This is a great way to learn more about the IB Exam process prior to your student's senior year!

Volunteer Proctors Needed for AP Exams

AP Exams are the culmination of the hard work of students and teachers during their AP courses.  Volunteers are needed to assist with proctoring these exams.  Proctoring involves distributing and collecting exams and monitoring the testing room. No experience is necessary and full instructions will be given to proctors.  If we don't have enough volunteers, teachers will need to be pulled from other classes to monitor the two-three hour exams, which removes them from the classrooms where they are conducting final lessons and reviews.  RHS will be holding over 40 AP Exams between May 6 through May 24.  Please consider signing up to proctor an AP Exam.  


Note: An individual may not proctor an AP Exam or handle materials for an exam in the same year an immediate family or household member may be taking the exam at any school.
Tutoring and Review Assistance

Robinson students looking for additional academic help have a number of options!

Saturday Schoo
With IB Exams and EOCs right around the corner, many IB Teachers will be available for reviews during one of our many Saturday School dates. The next Saturday School will be held on  April 27, from 9a-12n. 

ZAP Free Lunchtime Tutoring
In addition to the many after school tutoring options, Robinson is now holding FREE lunchtime tutoring sessions for students during all 3 lunches.  Students  should ask their teacher for a ZAP Pass  (Zeros Aren't Permissible), where they can go to the cafeteria, get their lunch fast, and then zoom over to their tutor's room where they can have individual or small group attention in needed areas.
