Spectrum will be offering the PSAT 9 in digital format to all 9th graders on Monday, December 7th from 7:30-11am. While this test is not a requirement for most students, it is a valuable tool for families to assess college and career readiness as your student transitions into high school. It is also a great opportunity to practice test taking skills in preparation for college entrance exams like the ACT. Please note that the PSAT 9 is a requirement for all students in the AVID program.
This year, students will complete the test on their Chromebook. Due to test security, all students are required to complete the test in-person at Spectrum High School. The cost for the test is $13 and can be paid via Infinite Campus upon completion of the survey and registration form.
