These may be downloaded from new.mtfest.com\, and will be available after the schedule is published. \nTeachers must agree to abide by the Teacher Responsibilities. \nNo make-up exams will be given for any reason. If the entire event is cancelled for weather\, the snow date is January 17\, 2026. \nDue to the number of exams being given\, the paucity of volunteers\, and the difficulty of scheduling adjacent exams for those students testing on two or more skills\, please ask your students to save the whole day\, and understand that time requests\, nor requests for make-ups can be honored.
