Students should plan to arrive early to the exam administration. There will be snacks and drinks available for break time, but you are welcome to bring a small snack or water bottle of your own. You will not have access to food or drink during testing. . Please pay particular attention to the following points of information:

The Bluebook app will be used for all exams. College Board username and password must be used to login. (Please either memorize or write down your username and password.) A test preview MUST be done before exam day. Bluebook will automatically update at this time as well. Make sure you see this version number BT-2026 in the bottom right corner. It is highly recommended that you also complete the full-length practice test in preparation for your exam/s.

Congratulations to our Art Show winners!

Every school year presents unique challenges when it comes to creating and encouraging students to find their personal voice and confidence to share it. Every year I am delighted to see how they meet the challenge with courage and determination. I am always proud of how original and thoughtful my students are when creating their artwork. Their talent is their own, I can only help them hone their skills. This year was another example of excellence in art. ~ Mrs. Russell
