8th-9th will take the PreACT 8/9 and 10th-11th will take the ACT in the spring. (Students will not need to sign up for the test. The test will be given to all students in those grade levels.)

PSAT/NMSQT is the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test which is a co-sponsored program by the College Board and National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC).  This is a standardized test that provides firsthand practice for the SAT Reasoning Test. As an 11th grader, it also gives you a chance to enter National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) scholarship programs.  The PSAT/NMSQT measures:  critical reading skills, math problem-solving skills, and writing skills.    

Practice tests may be taken by downloading the Bluebook app on the student's ipad or laptop computer.  Students must create a Collegeboard account, open the Bluebook app, and begin to become familiar with the testing site.
