PSAT October 9

Dear 8th Grade Parents,

 

On Wednesday, October 9, 2024, all Grade 8 students will take the Digital PSAT 8/9 standardized test. For Grades 8 through 10, the PSAT is practice for the PSAT/NMSQT test taken by juniors across the country. The 11th-grade exam determines qualification for National Merit Scholarships. There is no need to run out to purchase test prep tutoring books or tutoring for this exam. It is a research-based and practice test and should be viewed as such. Students should get a good night’s sleep and eat a healthy breakfast before coming to school. Students with current documentation on file and receiving extended time will use that accommodation for this assessment. 

Students will test from 8:15 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. and then resume their normal schedule. 

Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

Best,

Chrystal Myers

Head of Middle School
