TESTING
- The Dec. 3 SAT has a registration deadline of Nov. 3 with a late deadline of Nov. 22.

These are the last tests of 2016. There is a January SAT.
FINANCIAL AID
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid, known as the FAFSA, is available. It will use the 2015 tax year and a data retrieval tool to pull information directly from the IRS. These changes will hopefully make the financial aid process easier.
Please check with your prospective colleges on their deadlines.
Seniors need to submit their resumes to Scott Magrath.
