SAT/ACT Practice exam dates
As you may know, the Edmonds School District has canceled all community facility use until April 13th. This cancellation includes the upcoming ACT Practice Test on March 21 at EWHS. At this time, we have rescheduled the practice test for April 18, 2020. The time and rooms will remain the same. In addition, the Scores Back Session will also be postponed until after both tests have been completed.
The EWHS PSO and the Princeton Review are offering two practice tests this winter/spring: a full-length SAT practice test (March 7th) and a practice ACT (originally planned on March 21st, but now postponed to April 18th). We are asking for a contribution of $20 to take 1 test and $35 to take both tests. The scores back session is scheduled for after both tests has been completed. Check-in will start at 8:45am on test days and students should bring #2 pencils and a calculator. (Calculators will not be provided.)
For digital sign up for the test(s) please click HERE and for electronic payment via PayPal HERE (or via the top right button of the PSO website). You can also download the paper signup form, which can be filled in and dropped off at the school office. If you prefer paying by check, please make this out to the “Edmonds Woodway PSO” and drop off at the front desk. Fee waivers can be offered, with a counselor sign – off.
