2. Food will be available in LaFollette Dining Room. Breakfast and snacks may be purchased and pin numbers may also be used.
3. Valuables should not be brought to the examination. For security reasons, students are advised NOT to bring backpacks, bags, or any electronic devices including cell phones to school during the examination period. The following will be read at the beginning of each exam:

Formal school/non-regents exams

“You cannot have any electronic/communications device, including a cell phone, on your person during this exam or during any breaks, such as a restroom visit. Such devices include, but are not limited to, CD and audiocassette players, radios, cell phones, pagers, MP3 players, Personal Digital Assistants, video devices, and associated headphones, watches or wearables capable of wireless communications, headsets, microphones, earplugs, or any other electronic communication device. Any electronic devices not previously placed in your locker, must be powered off, and removed from your person and placed in an area away from your exam seat as determined by the Head Proctor. If a cell phone should ring or a pager should beep during an examination, you must not look at it or use it. You must raise your hand to indicate to your teacher or a proctor that the phone, pager, or electronic device needs to be turned off by the proctor. You may not, under any circumstances, touch or look at the cell phone or electronic device. You may not take an electronic device with you during a break. Doing so will be considered use of the device and the device will then be confiscated by the teacher/proctor. Upon administrative review, your exam will be invalidated and you will get no score. Failure to turn over the device to the teacher/proctor in charge, or causing any further disruption to the test setting, will result in an immediate removal from the test setting. If you have brought these items into the testing room, understand that Shaker High School is not responsible for lost, damaged or stolen items.”

NYS Regents Exams

Any electronic devices not previously placed in your locker, must be removed from your person and placed in an area away from your exam seat as determined by the Head Proctor. You cannot have any communications device, including a cell phone, with you during this exam or during any breaks (such as a restroom visit). Such devices include, but are not limited to:

• Cell phones/wireless communication watches/wearables
• Blackberry devices and other PDAs
• iPods and MP3 players
• iPads, tablets, and other eReaders
• Laptops, notebooks, or any other personal computing devices
• Cameras or other photographic equipment
• Headphones, headsets, or in-ear headphones such as earbuds, and
• Any other device capable of recording audio, photographic or video content, or capable of viewing or playing back such content.

If you brought any of these items to the building today, and have not already stored it in your locker or turned it over to me, a test monitor or school official, you must give it to me now. You may not keep your cell phone or any of these items with you, or near you, including in your pockets, backpack, desk etc. If you keep a cell phone or any other of the above listed items with you or near you during the examination, or during a restroom visit, it will be confiscated, your exam will be invalidated and you will get no score. Is there anyone who needs to give me any of these items now?

Attendance During Exams

Students enrolled in courses for which there are final examinations are responsible for taking tests on given dates and times. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each examination period and phone calls will be made to verify each absence. The scheduling of personal appointments, vacations or meeting obligations other than those of an emergency nature shall not constitute a valid reason for missing an examination and will result in a grade of zero. Valid reasons include illness or injury confirmed by a physician’s note; death in family; court appearance confined by court documentation; or placement in a facility. Notification to the Hall Principal and/or Supervisor is mandatory. Students and parents must make every effort to schedule mandatory college orientation/placement exams during non-testing periods. If a student is going to attend a mandatory college orientation/placement exam during a testing period, the parents and college must provide documentation explaining the reason(s) for this request. Eligibility for make-up examinations will be determined by the Hall Principal and Department Supervisor. Once the absence has been approved, it is the student’s responsibility to contact the Department Supervisor and reschedule the exam. If arrangements for make-up examinations have not been made prior to the conclusion of the examination period, those unscheduled students shall receive an examination grade of zero. Regents examinations distributed by the State cannot be rescheduled. These exams must be given at the designated times. Students who arrive late to an examination should report to their scheduled exam room. Their exam will end at the normally scheduled ending time. No additional time will be allowed. Students taking Regents exams will not be admitted into the exam room after the State “Universal Admission Deadline” times of 10:00 a.m. for any morning examination and 2:00 p.m. for any afternoon exam.
