Attention Class of 2023!
Families of Juniors and Seniors
Beginning on January 17, 2023 and continuing through February 16, 2023, students taking the SAT School Day in April 2023 may opt into the optional essay.
Students must log into their CollegeBoard accounts to opt into the essay. The CollegeBoard defaults students to the SAT without Essay. Castle View High School administration cannot opt students in directly. The optional essay is only available for the SAT. There is not an optional essay on the PSAT 9 or the PSAT 10.
If you or your student has questions about the benefits of the optional essay, please have your student make an appointment with Ms. Malson or their counselor.

You can drop off your items to Post Grad (in the back of the main office) anytime on January 23rd. Thank you for helping us provide snacks to our wonderful staff as they kick off the year 2023!

We are in search of several adult volunteers to proctor Advanced Placement exams in early May 2023. Volunteer proctors will allow our teachers and special service providers to stay in classrooms helping students learn rather than proctoring half-day exams.
Commitment: One 90-minute training in mid-April 2023 and one four-hour morning or afternoon session May 1-5 or 8-12 2023. All training will be provided.
Please fill out this interest survey if you would consider helping us out.
