Job Shadowing
PSAT 10 & SAT Testing March 1
Juniors, students who are considering college as a part of their future, should begin thinking about the 4 colleges/universities that they wish to send their SAT score reports to. When students complete their pre-registration in their classes, they will have the opportunity to enter the schools that they want to send their scores to. By choosing those schools, you will be saving yourself money down the road. Each score report that is sent to a college/university during the college application process, costs roughly $18. Knowing these scores have already been sent, will be a relief. If you choose to apply test optional at a later date, your scores will be disregarded.
Sophomores, the PSAT 10 is truly a practice test for the PSAT/NMSQT that you will take next fall as a junior to qualify for National Merit Scholarships. So this test will allow you to experience a similar testing environment to the one that you will experience when you one day take the SAT.
Freshmen and Seniors-you will not have school on March 1st. This is a day that can best be utilized by participating in a job shadowing experience, volunteering for service learning hours, touring a college campus.
