SPORTS NEWS:

Track and Field Two girls relays have set school records in the last two weeks. The girls 4X400 relay of Christine Bailey, Sophia Cupp, Amelia Johannes, and Sarah Klatt set the school record on April 27th. On May 5th, the 4X100 relay team of Christine Bailey, Sophia Cupp, Amelia Johannes, and Makiya Gayles set a new school record. Darrius Gaw continues to have a great season in both the 110 and 300 hurdles. With the state meet two weeks away, the Buffs look to continue to peak at the Centennial League Championships this weekend. Boys' Swim & Dive After a strong showing in B-League on Saturday it's on to A-League for the Water Buffaloes. Carlos Almeraz, Buddy Bacheller, Gabe Binsol, Alex Burkhardt, Scott Crowner, Javonni Dass, Dennis Domashevich, Timothy Domashevich, Garrett Iverson, Nikolas Maestas, Tylen Phillips, Patrick Piwko, Nick Price, Nick Sampson, Gian Santos, Michael Sau, Jordan Scott, Danil Shpurik, Logan Strid, Everett Urban, Jose Valle, Jackson Vann, Nick Walseth, Devyn Walton, Seth Wells, and Ben Zahalka will all compete at A-League with hopes of continuing to State May 18 and 19. Girls' Soccer The girls closed their season with a win over Pomona and were 3-2-1 in their last six games and Freshmen Xandra Mora and Holly Schlagel led the team in goals. While the seniors will be missed, the future is very bright for our Buffaloes. Boys' Lacrosse The boys sent the seniors off with a victory last Thursday night despite battling rain and a lightning delay. The Buffs improve every day they stepped on the field and look to continue to make strides next year. While senior James Bowers led the Buffs in scoring, he was followed closely by junior Deuce Laduke and sophomores Matt Lash and Carson Lowe.  Girls' Golf Junior Amisha Singh and Senior Brooke Arithson will be playing in regionals at Colorado Springs Country Club on Monday, May 7th. They are looking for a spot in the State Tournament on May 21 and 22 at the Boulder Country Club. Girls' Lacrosse The girls finished the season with a late night affair at Liberty High School in Colorado Springs on May 2nd. Esperanza Serrano, Maya Miraflor, and Chloe Stoffel led the Buffs in goals this year. With only four seniors on this year's team, the returning girls hope to build on their leadership next year. Baseball The Buffs completed the regular season at 9-10 and are hanging to slim hopes for a playoff spot. Sophomore Dylan Mckee and juniors Colin Richey and Cam Kennedy led the team in hits, while junior Ayden Grimble and sophomores Diego Velasquez and Liam Grimble led the way on the mound. Girls' Tennis The girls finished up their season at regionals in Ft. Collins. It was a difficult year for the girls and while we did not have anyone advance to the state tournament this week, we are excited for next year.

SAT SCORE INFORMATION:
Student Access to Scores
  1. Students will need a free College Board account to view their scores online.
  2. Direct students to https://studentscores.collegeboard.org/viewscore to sign-up for a new account or log in to their existing account.
  3. The "forgot username" and "forgot password" links can be used to recover this information if a student has forgotten their login credentials or if they are unsure if they already have an account.
Please note: Although most scores will be released according to the schedule above, some scores will be released later for reasons that may include participation in the accommodated testing window, makeup testing, late receipt of answer sheets, missing information on the answer sheet, or other exceptional conditions that require additional attention.

Matching College Board Student Accounts and Registration for Students without Scores

If a student is signed into his/her College Board account but doesn't see the score, it means we were not able to link their score report and account automatically. For security reasons, a student must verify additional information before we can display his/her scores. For SAT, the student will need either his/her SAT registration number (available to the school's test coordinator in the Detail Roster report) or the State Assigned Student ID (SASID) number used to pre-identify the student at the time of test registration.  For PSAT, the student will need the access code (available to the school's test coordinator in the Detail Roster report) or SASID number.
To match their test score to their student account, the student will:
  1. Go to https://studentscores.collegeboard.org/viewscore
  2. Scroll down and click Matching Tool.
  3. Review the personal information.
  4. If any information is incorrect, click Update to revise. (Students will be prompted to re-enter their password.)
  5. If the information is correct, click Get My Scores.
  6. The student will have to select one of the following options:
a.       I can supply my test information (test date and registration number for SAT or test date and access code for PSAT), or
b.      I can supply my student ID (using the State Assigned Student ID (SASID) used to pre-identify the student at test registration)


 

7. Click Get My Scores


There may still be cases in which a student is not able to view their scores using the steps above because the information provided is too different or the scores have not yet been finalized. If students are still unable to view their scores after completing the steps above, they should call the College Board's Reporting Helpline at  PSAT:  866-433-7728;  SAT: 866-756-7346.
