This is a test prep class for students who want to prepare for the SSAT or HSPT test to apply for private high schools or talented search programs.
The SSAT score is required by OES, Catlin Cable high school application or it can be used to qualify the talented search program such as Johns Hopkins for talented youth https://cty.jhu.edu/. SSAT tests usually are hosted by some local schools like OES, Catlin Cable. The tests are usually offered in December, January, and February.
The HSPT test is similar to the SSAT test, which is used by the Christian High schools like Jesuit, St. Mary, or Valley Catholic. HSPT test is usually offered in January by the private school like Jesuit.
This class in Summer term focuses on fundamental skills of Reading/Vocabulary/Writing for Upper-level SSAT/HSPT, which is also good for students who wants to improve on Reading/Vocabulary/Writing skills.
