Conway Public Schools will offer evening classes to selected 10th grade students starting in the spring semester of 2009 with the express purpose of offering test preparation for the PSAT which is the qualifying test for the National Merit Scholarship Program. www.nationalmerit.org
The schedule for evening classes will be built around the existing schedules of the students selected to take part in this program. Classes will start in the spring semester of 2009 and continue on with a few strategic class meetings during the summer of 2009, culminating with a practice PSAT and follow-up to take place just prior to the October 2009 administration of the PSAT. The PSAT taken in the fall of a student’s junior year is the one time opportunity that will determine National Merit Semifinalist status.
The deadline to apply is this Friday, February 27th. For more information contact the couselin center at Conway East High School Campus.
