    SAT and ACT Tests

    Most 4-year colleges still require students to take at least one of these tests.  You can find the dates and registration deadlines by going to the Counseling Calendar.  Students are encouraged to take the ACT test as well as the SAT as many score better on the ACT, and colleges usually consider the higher of the scores regardless of which test was taken.

     Parents of students who take either the SAT or ACT test can choose whether they want the student's scores to show on the high school transcript.  Since most colleges do not "penalize" students for "lower" scores on these tests, we will add the scores to the transcript, to assure that the college will receive them.  Please notify your child's Counselor should you want to discuss. 

    Students who take the SAT test more than once, can choose which scores they want to send to colleges.  Check out the Score Choice option when you register, for more information.
