Starting on May 5, ending May 16, Viking Time will be extended an extra 2o minutes in order to accommodate preparation for the upcoming AP and SOL tests.
All other classes will only be shortened by 5 minutes, so take a look at the adjusted bell schedule.
Activity coordinator Wendy Walker says this extra work and studying time is crucial for students.
“Extended Viking time is something that we do for a couple of weeks prior to our SOL testing,” Walker said. “It’s the opportunity for students that need a little more time to get that push of extra instruction in their specific areas.”
Students may find it helpful to take advantage of this opportunity and reach out to all of your teachers before testing.
