SAT Testing

 

Scholastic Aptitude Test 

The SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) is a globally recognized college admission test that's accepted at all U.S. colleges.  The SAT tests what students are already learning in class and what they'll actually use in college. Taking the SAT is the best way to show off the skills and knowledge that colleges care about. 

 

There will be no cost for this test and will be conducted during the school day.  There is no need to sign up for this school day test.  All juniors will be automatically enrolled.  Additional information will be available closer to test day.

 

*Other test dates are available through the College Board.  Registration is directly through the SAT website. The SAT is 3 hours and costs $55.00.
