Sinai will resume sessions on Wednesday January 28th on a Tuesday schedule. In other words: all exams originally scheduled for Tuesday will be administered on Wednesday. As such, the Wednesday tests will be given on Thursday, and Thursday tests will be given on FRIDAY.
See the original finals schedule here:

The second semester begins Monday February 2 as scheduled.
Sinai Academy will be closed tomorrow Tuesday January 27.
Enjoy the snow day!
Also take the time to seek out ways to help people (such as the elderly) that may need it during these weather conditions.
Please be aware that due to severe weather school will likely be closed Tuesday (possibly Wednesday also). As such the schedule for Final exams will shift to the next open school day.
In other words:
In case of Tuesday (only) closing, tests that were scheduled for Tuesday will be administered on Wednesday. Wednesday exams will be given on Thursday, and Thursday exams will be given on Friday.
In case of Tuesday and Wednesday closing, Tuesday exams will be given on Thursday; Wednesday’s on Friday, and Thursday’s on Monday (after Hebrew classes).
Stay tuned for updates via our Facebook page or school website.

ATTENTION ALL ENGLISH CLASSES:
Your midterm format has been changed. Please note that you will still need to know whatever we have covered since September, but you will refer to the texts we have read, not a new text selected for the test. As previously announced, you will need to identify themes, major plot elements, imagery, syntax, diction, tone, setting, how characters respond to and evolve because of challenges, and the function of points of view. You will also need to know the kinds of figurative language the authors employed, and why.
Refresh your memory of the texts we read this semester. Review your class notes and the kinds of questions that were asked on the handouts. Remember why certain texts are considered literature and not merely writing. Finally, be prepared to write about the connections you found between the texts and your life.
