As of 2/3, the #CollegeBoard is retiring Practice Tests 1-3. Rather than following their advice to take the tests before they disappear, the recommendation here is to leave them alone. Their elimination would seem to indicate that they're not well aligned with the actual tests. #TestPrep #SAT

Plainview families! This note from the district implies that students must choose to either take the exam on the School Day test date offered or on a Saturday. However, taking the test on March 12th does not preclude testing on other dates. #POBJFK #SAT #SchoolDay
