Students: On Wednesday, October 16th

testing as well as senior graduation prep work.
Students in grades 9 and 10 will take the PSAT exams. Juniors may elect to take the PSAT as well
for a charge of $16 if paid by October 9th. Interested students must sign up and pay
their fee by contacting our Bookkeeper in the main office. The cost will increase to $20 starting
October 10th. Signing up
to take the PSAT on the day of the test is not permitted. Juniors who do
not take the PSAT will take the ASVAB test.
Seniors will use the time to update their PEP and complete their FAFSA
