PSAT/NMSQT Information: On October 13th, juniors will have the opportunity to take the PSAT/NMSQT (Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test), an important test that provides many benefits that can help him or her along the path to college. All D’Evelyn juniors are automatically registered for the PSAT/NMSQT and no action is needed at this time for your student to take the assessment. The PSAT/NMSQT offers your student the opportunity to enter competitions for scholarships that can help pay for college. The PSAT/NMSQT is also great practice for the SAT. They’ll also get personalized feedback on their performance to help improve their skills before taking the SAT. In addition, students receive free college planning tools to help them start their college search and feedback on the types of AP courses for which they may be particularly well prepared. Taking these college-level classes can help students earn college credit while still in high school and provide them with a competitive advantage in the college admission process. You can learn more about the PSAT/NMSQT on the College Board’s Website. If your child is interested in hearing from colleges and universities across the country that are looking for students like him or her, remind your child to opt in to Student Search Service when he or she takes the test. The test will begin promptly at 7:35am and conclude by 12:00pm. Juniors will not have any classes and will be dismissed after the test ends. See HERE for additional logistical information that has already been communicated to your student. Please contact Assistant Principal Dan Wille with questions ([email protected]).
