SAT/ACT Prep:
Dear Parents (and Students),
NOW 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 unlock the same door when it comes to college admission and college
scholarship $.
