Attention all Sophomores and Juniors:

The PSAT/NMSQT is the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. The PSAT is a great primer for the SAT, and even the ACT, but it’s more than just a trial run. PSAT scores are used to identify National Merit Scholars and award merit scholarships.

We would like to invite all sophomores and juniors to take the PSAT scheduled for October 24, 2018, at 8:30am in the MPR.  There is a $20 fee for this test.  Please pay online in Zangle/Q Parent Connection, print out a copy of the receipt and then have your student bring the receipt to the office to sign up for the test.  Deadline for signups is 2:00pm Tuesday, September 11, 2018.

Respectfully,
Janet L. Moffatt
Steller Secondary School- Registrar

Seniors are invited to submit essays for a contest where college scholarships will be awarded as prizes. Deadline for submission is October 19, 2018.
