SAT Prep:

Dear Parents (and Students),

Fall is the perfect opportunity to start (or continue) training for the ACT and SAT.   I cannot emphasize
enough how critical it is to prepare for these exams. Colleges accept BOTH tests, so there are two keys to
try an unlock the same door when it comes to college admission.  

I wanted to reach out and inform all parents that Dr. Carlin will be hosting his popular
SAT/ACT Prep Course at St. Joseph High School beginning TUE Nov 6, 2018 at 7:00 p.m
(MEDIA CENTER).  Parents can register online at the link below
(http://www.drcarlinstestprep.com/st-joe-hs---satact---nov-2018.html)

Dr. Carlin does an outstanding job presenting both the strategy and content of these complex exams at a
fraction of the cost of bigger test prep companies, and he gets results.  This course can help students
maximize their scores, opening the doors to more competitive colleges as well as bigger money scholarships.
