SAT Night
|
As you and your child get ready for college, our school invites all high school parents and students to join the SAT Night on Wednesday, March 7 at 6:00 pm.
The SAT gives your child a chance to show how ready they are with questions that look a lot like what they’re learning in class. The SAT: • Focuses on vocabulary and math they're already learning in class and that they'll need to succeed in college. • Doesn’t penalize for guessing—your child is free to try every question. • Offers an optional essay.
The SAT is the only test that offers free practice on Khan Academy®. Your child can work at their own pace on the areas they need to improve. It’s a completely personalized way to get ready. And it’s completely free.
We welcome students and their families to attend our SAT Night on Wednesday, March 7th at 6:00 pm to learn more about the SAT and college.
