The school opens on January 5th, and the the exams that follow are for upper level students.I think the Obama girls will be in the lower or middle school.
Where did you find that lower and middle school students start a new semester after January 5th?
Oops, you may be right.
I went to the school website and saw the exam schedule that went through January 15. Do you think there are no exams at the end of the semester except for the high school? Maybe.
