Natalie Mauhili (serving Studio students with last names A-L)

Karen Withem (serving Studio students with last names M-Z)

PSAT: Tuesday, January 26th, 2021

If you signed your 11th-grade student up for the PSAT in the Fall through our Permission Click, then your 11th-grade student is scheduled to take the PSAT on Tuesday, January 26th. If you received an email from the Counseling team, then this is confirmation that your 11th-grade student is signed up to take the PSAT on that day. If you decide you do NOT want your student to test for any reason, please make sure that you have responded to the email confirmation that you received letting us know. This is not a required test.

Freshmen, sophomores, and seniors, and any juniors not testing should plan for a home study/asynchronous day on Tuesday, January 26th.

Testing will begin at 8:00 a.m. and will last until approximately 12:15 p.m. Students should plan to arrive at the high school no later than 7:45 in order for check-in. Check-in will begin no earlier than 7:30 a.m. Please plan to enter at the back entrance of the high school. Students can be dropped off either on Pennsylvania Avenue or may park in the student parking lots. There will not be drop off available in the back parking lot. Staff members will temperature check each student upon arrival. Additionally, we will plan for social distancing and will expect all students to wear masks at all times. This includes both during testing and on any of the scheduled testing breaks.


It is important that your child is not late for school. Students will not be permitted to take the test if they walk in late and testing has already begun.

Students who are absent that day will not be able to retake the test. January 26th is the national testing date, so we are not able to reschedule testing.
