How Do I Pay for the Tests?

If you are part of the free/reduced lunch program, your cost is $53/test.
Send a check made out to SLVHS, and put your (student's) first and last name in the memo line. Address the envelope to SLVHS Attn: Annina Hausmann.
Payment is due to SLV High School by May 4th.
If your situation has changed and you and your family need financial support at this time, please contact Annina Hausmann at [email protected]

Tips and Information for Students and Families

* Open book: open book, open internet but tests are designed so that there is no way an answer can come from the internet
* Kids will practice uploading materials with teachers soon
* Tests were written with the knowledge that most students will not finish all questions. Just do your best. You can still pass even if you don't answer all questions.
* It's recommended that parents plan a place in the house for testing. Other family members should not take the bandwidth. All distractions should be thought about ahead of time (siblings)
* Tests won't be harder or easier than any other year.
* They have sophisticated ways of finding cheaters. If it's proven that you tried to cheat, you are reported to college admissions people everywhere.
