July SAT Preparation<br />
Students can take critical reading and writing and/or math preparation. The courses<br />
are designed to give a comprehensive review of the SAT exam. The math course<br />
meets from 9:00-10:55 a.m., while the critical reading and writing course meets from<br />
11:00 a.m.-12:55 p.m. The program provides significant time for individual instruction<br />
and practice.<br />
The combined program is our best preparation for the SAT, but these courses allow<br />
students the option of studying only critical reading and writing or math.<br />
