WHO: 9th - 11th grade students will participate at no cost (some English Language Learners who are early in their English language learning and some self-contained special education students will not participate)

WHEN: Tuesday, October 29, 2024 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS WITH ACCOMODATIONS

Requests for PSAT testing accommodations are due to College Board on September 6, 2024. If your student qualifies for testing accommodations and you would like to request them, please fill out this form:

If a student with disabilities took the PSAT last year (in grades 9, 10, or 11) and had accommodations, their accommodations with the College Board will still be in place until they graduate. For these students, nothing additional is needed.

Please submit all completed request forms to Ms. Tiffany Goetz (IEPs) or Dr. Skinner (504s). If you have any questions, please contact SSD Coordinators:
