Change the amount of work for Midterms at St. Dominic's High School in Oyster Bay

The Issue

Due to COVID-19 circumstances, St. Dominic's High School suspended the usual Midterms we would take in January, and replaced them with projects and extended assignments in nearly all of our classes. Though this initially sounds like a good idea, the amount of work we are getting in these classes is a LOT, especially with only a month to complete them. Most students would agree these assignments are too much work, and a lot of the assignments have no relativity to the curriculum in the classes. We would like to change these projects into something more reasonable and veered towards our classes.
