Exam Schedule


All students in grades 9–12 are expected to be present during their scheduled exam times. Monday will be a regular 7-period day with exams starting on Tuesday.


Students who have a study hall during a particular bell may arrive late or leave early as long as they have immediate transportation.

  • For example, if a student has Study Hall during Bell 1, they may arrive at school on Monday at 10:25 a.m. (five minutes before Testing Session #2).
  • If a student has Study Hall during Bell 4, they may leave school on Tuesday at the conclusion of Testing Session #3 at 10:30 a.m., provided they have a ride.


Daily Testing Schedule

  • Testing Session #1: 8:00–10:00 a.m.
  • Break: 10:00–10:30 a.m. (30 minutes to decompress and/or review)
  • Testing Session #2: 10:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.



Students who are able to get home on their own may leave at 12:30 p.m. All students waiting for a bus must report to the cafeteria at the conclusion of Testing Session #2. Please note: There will be no early bus routes during exam week.


The cafeteria will be open with a limited menu and snacks available for purchase. After eating, students are expected to remain in the cafeteria until the regular dismissal time at 2:45 p.m. to catch the bus.


NOTE: To alleviate traffic backing up onto Drake Road, parents/guardians who plan on picking their child up after exams may utilize the bus lot.


2025-2026 School Fees



School fees for the 2025-26 school year have been added into your PowerSchool account. You are able to pay these fees in MySchool Bucks or by check. If you prefer to pay by check, please make checks payable to Indian Hill High School. Fees have been assessed for year long classes and first semester. Second semester will be assessed separately.

The 2026 Braves Game Closing Ceremony (school-wide off-site dance event) will be held at the Little Miami Event Center on January 31, 2026. Tickets are on sale here and student representatives will also be selling tickets during lunch periods.
