West High Will Be Administering the SAT With the Essay to All Juniors on Wed., 3/27

The SAT, which is now the NH State Assessment for juniors, will be administered at West on Wednesday, March 27th at 7:45 am. This will be a regular school day for the rest of the school. The SAT is a college entrance exam that is required by most four year colleges. Test sections include Math and Evidence-Based Reading and Writing. The cost to take the SAT with the essay is normally $64.50, but due to the test now being our state assessment, this test is free of charge! Juniors have already received SAT Practice Booklets to help them prepare. West will also be offering Khan Academy SAT prep in the library on March 20th, 21st and 25th after school until 3:30. Teachers will be on hand to help. Practice is key to improving your score on this test. On test day, students will need two #2 pencils and a scientific or graphing calculator. Cell phone use is strictly prohibited the entire test period. Before the test, please encourage your son or daughter to get a good night's sleep, eat a good breakfast, arrive to school and their test room on time, and give the test their best effort.
