The Idaho SATŪ School Day testing for Juniors is on Wednesday, April 18, 2012, during the morning.  

Juniors will need to have completed either the SAT, ACT, or the COMPASS test as one of the new State of Idaho graduation requirements.  These three test are the most commonly used tests in college admissions today.

 

Studying for the SAT can make a difference in a student's score.  Juniors are encouraged to use the online access code on their PSAT score sheet and log in to www.collegeboard.org/quickstart for strategies on how to improve their SAT score, see their projected SAT scores, and view college and career planning information.  In addition, WRHS is offering both math and English SAT prep classes during the next quarter.  Please see your counselor to enroll in one of these classes.

 

Another SAT study strategy is Method Test Prep available on Naviance.  For help with access to Naviance, please contact Laurie Engel, Registrar in the Counseling Office or Carla Stewart-Donaldson, the College & Career Counselor at cstewart-donaldson@blaineschools.org
