SAT Prep Course

January 9, 2023

Dear Students and Parents,

Now is a great time to prepare for the Scholastic Aptitude Test (the “SAT”). This exam

requires students to refine their skills in mathematics, critical reading, comprehension and

writing.

The Shrewsbury High School Spring SAT Prep Course will be offered during the spring

semester; participants may choose between Monday or Wednesday evening classes. The

course will run from the week of February 6th through the week of March 27th. See the

attached schedule for complete dates and times. Classes will meet remotely by Zoom for a

total of seven evening sessions. Students will complete synchronous and asynchronous

activities throughout the course. Small classes allow for a great deal of individual

attention. Students also take two full-length in person SAT exams, which provide

reinforcement for skills taught during the course and test taking experience. Enrollment is

strictly on a first-come, first-served basis; the course is open to juniors and seniors.

Our program is very special because of the quality of the instruction. Teachers provide

training that addresses skills as well as strategies useful for success on the SAT. If a student

makes a commitment to practice by doing the required homework, attending all seven

classes, and taking the practice exams, his/her scores should increase significantly.

Please Note: Students who enroll in the course will follow the same code of conduct as is

expected during the school day. Students are expected to be respectful of their peers and

teachers throughout the duration of the program.

Please send completed applications and checks made payable to “SHS SAT Prep Course” to:

Shrewsbury High School, Attn: Jen Lundsten, 64 Holden Street, Shrewsbury, MA 01545 by

Friday, January 27th. Questions can be directed to my assistant, Jen Lundsten, at

jalundsten@shrewsbury.k12.ma.us or 508-841-8810. This class will only run if there is

sufficient demand.

Sincerely,

Maureen Monopoli
