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


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.
