Final Exam for the End of the School Year

Students. It has been a long week but today you are sitting down to your last day in public school, ready to take your final examination. Now, because your school district has divined a way so as not to have this final exam count for anything that will remotely alter your grade as it exists right now, I have decided to make this final exam one of discovery.
