SENIORS DO NOT need to be at school tomorrow April 12, 2023. They should be taking the opportunity to visit a college or trade school, job shadow, perform an act of community service, or work with their recruiter. They have a form that needs to be filled out and returned to school on Thursday in order to be counted as present for the day of the 12th. If the form is not signed and returned, they will be marked absent. Do to state testing for grades 9-11, they are not allowed to be on campus.
REMINDER THAT GRADES 9-11 WILL BE TESTING TOMORROW. Below is the information. If your student is absent, they will have to make up the test.
Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s):
On Wednesday, April 12th, all Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors will be involved in testing.
Freshmen and Sophomores will take the PSAT, a standardized preparatory test for the SAT. Data from the PSAT will be utilized to help prepare the underclassmen for their SATs. Juniors will participate in the SAT, which can be used for college admissions decisions, dual credit enrollment, and college course placement.
For a successful day of testing, it is important that your student gets a good night’s sleep, a healthy breakfast, and some positive encouragement before the start of school. It is critical that your student is in attendance on this day as these tests are required by the state of Illinois. ALL students need to report to their designated testing room by 8:10 AM, testing will begin NO LATER THAN 8:15 AM. PSAT testing will conclude around 12:00 PM and SAT testing around 1:00 PM. If your child has accommodated testing with extended timing, testing could go longer (all testing will conclude by 1:00 PM).
Students will need at least a couple of non-mechanical number 2 pencils, an approved calculator (click here for calculator policy), and clear bottle of water/small snack (Juniors may want to bring a couple snacks). Phones and smartwatches are not permitted in the testing area and will have to be turned in if brought to the testing room.
Students will be released for the day once testing in their room is completed. Students can go to the cafeteria for lunch after testing if needed. Students who do not have a way to leave campus early must notify the office in advance that they wish to remain on campus. Those students will report to a designated room to wait for buses. Buses will run at the regularly scheduled dismissal time.
Please reach out if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.
