Good afternoon Largo family. This is assistant principal Jonathan Marina with a PSAT update.
On Wednesday, October 14th, 2020, our face-to-face 10th graders and 11th graders will take the PSAT/NMSQT, a test of the skills and knowledge essential for college and career that scholars are learning in class.
The PSAT/NMSQT is an important step in your child’s journey to college or a strong career path. The test offers scholars the opportunity to connect with colleges and universities, enter scholarship competitions, get ready for the SAT, and sharpen their skills with free practice on SATpractice.org through Khan Academy, and learn what AP classes might make the most of their strengths.
The test takes approximately two hours and 45minutes plus ten minutes for breaks and up to 40 minutes for registration activities. Scholars should bring regular non-mechanical number 2 pencils with them and a calculator that is not also a cellphone. 11th-grade MyPCS scholars should arrive at the school no later than 7:25 Wednesday morning.
We appreciate your support in discussing the PSAT with your child to emphasize how valuable the experience can be. Have a great evening.
As always, thank you for listening. We are on a mission. The mission is graduation. Don’t forget the mission.
