If a senior is absent on the day of an exam, a parent/guardian must call to report the absence. All exams missed will be administered on the make-up day.

If a student needs to take a make-up exam due to a conflict, illness, or death in the immediate family, no grade penalty will be assessed. Students who miss an exam without prior permission or without a valid reason will be assessed a grade penalty on the exam.

Please follow the dress code regarding attire for exams. Review page 35 in the handbook.

Once the exam is over, seniors should leave. If you need to wait for a ride, you may wait quietly in the cafeteria. Seniors may not roam around the building or the grounds. Seniors may not hang around in the halls or lobbies because the remainder of the school is in session.
Seniors should start cleaning out lockers NOW. Take home books and materials that you wish to keep or that you need to study.
Return all library books to the library. Submit State of Maryland English books to your English teachers. Students who owe fees of any kind (library, main office, bus, guidance, music) will not be allowed to take exams until the fees have been paid.

Year of Mercy
 
Celebrating the Year of Mercy
On Tuesday, December 8th, the Church opened the Year of Mercy in response to the wishes and reflections of Pope Francis.  We invite all of you to become familiar with the Year of Mercy by watching this short Youtube reflection.
Please click here for video.

"If we-all of us-accept the grace of Jesus Christ, he changes our heart and from sinners makes us saints. To become holy we do not need to turn our eyes away and look somewhere else, or have as it were the face on a holy card! No, no, that is not necessary. To become saints only one thing is necessary: to accept the grace that the Father gives us in Jesus Christ. There, this grace changes our heart. We continue to be sinners for we are weak, but with this grace which makes us feel that the Lord is good, that the Lord is merciful, that the Lord waits for us, that the Lord pardons us-this immense grace that changes our heart." Pope Francis.

Registration Update - New Information
 
Dear Parents,
        In June, Seton will be migrating to a new database system to handle all of our computer work including our tuition and financials.  In preparation for this move, two pieces of information are critical to you:
  1. FACTS FEES:  Any parent who has unpaid FACTS FEES must pay them by May 31st.  Failure to pay these fees will prohibit your daughter from taking exams in June.
  2. When you re-register, the new system will only allow parents who are checking that they want to pay their tuition in two installments, EXACTLY TWO INSTALLMENTS on July 1st and January 5th.  Therefore, if you cannot pay your tuition in exactly two installments, you must sign up for monthly installments through FACTS.  Parents will not be allowed to sign up for two installments of tuition and pay partial amounts of these two required payments.
Thank you for your cooperation with our system migration.
