Due to secondary school teacher union action against Bill 115, teachers have withdrawn all extracurricular activities by leaving the school right at 3:30 and cancelling all clubs. Unfortunately computer science clubs will be part of the clubs that will be cancelled and no labs will be available for students to write the DWITE contest. http://www.osstf.on.ca/MR-Dec-04-2012. Would it be possible to make an exception to write the contest without teacher supervision?

-Thanks

What my team did for a few years was write the contest from home since our teacher was not always available. Remember that this is essentially practice for CCC and ECOO so as long as you keep that in mind and follow the rules just write the contest wherever you and your team can get together with a computer of some sort.
