Dear Parents and Guardians of LFHS Juniors,

As a partner in supporting the education and success of your student, we are constantly considering ways to better ensure student preparedness for the next phase of their education. As a school, we believe it is important to do as much as we can to take ownership of the ways we support our students. We are excited to offer SAT/Test Prep classes, free of charge, to your student as they prepare for the SAT test on March 11, 2017.

Students registered for this class will receive instructional support in Reading, Writing/Language, and Math, along with a free copy of The Official SAT Study Guide (provided by the Lake Forest Foundation). Additionally, students will learn testing strategies and procedures to support their success on the test. The classes will meet Saturday mornings, beginning January 14 - March 4, 2017. See schedule below. Students who miss more than one session will be charged a fee.  Please consider the attendance parameters prior to registering for the class.
