BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE SCHOOL

• The 1st Senior High School of Hymettus has
  been running since 1973 but has entered a new
  period recently with the introduction of subject
  classes. Under this programme which is based on
  the American school model, students do not have a
  specific classroom. Instead, they have lessons in
  different classrooms. In this way the teacher is
  provided with the opportunity to gather all the
  material and equipment s/he will need in one
  place, namely his or her classroom, thus making
  full use of it and the student is offered better
  teaching conditions, broader access to facilities
  and a rich variety of teaching realia and styles
  that promote both education and communication in
  a friendly environment.

  they take exams again in September. If they fail
  again they repeat the class

Exams ! ! !

• The Panhellenic exams are particularly
  difficult. Students of C class all over Greece
  are examined at the same subjects. Papers are
  corrected by other teachers (not the students
  own teachers), usually at a place in another area
  of Greece. If the students have a gap of marks
  between the oral and the written mark, they lose
  the oral mark. It is replaced by the written mark
  plus 2.

  after the Easter holidays) and last for about 6
  weeks.
• Then students and teachers go on holidays or
  gather strength for the new school year that
  starts on the 14th of September
