SAT Prep Class Details
A comprehensive in-person course built around the current digital SAT. Students strengthen Reading and Writing and Math skills, develop test-specific strategies, and practice under realistic testing conditions.
Because the SAT is fully digital, students must bring a laptop or tablet. Desmos is integrated into Bluebook, the College Board’s testing application, and students will learn when and how to use it effectively. An external calculator is optional.

ACT PREP COMING JANUARY 2027
Preparing local students for spring school-day ACT testing.
Many local public-school juniors are expected to take the ACT at school in late February. Our winter ACT Prep Class will help students strengthen tested skills, learn section-specific strategies, practice pacing, and become more familiar with what to expect before test day.
The class is expected to begin in January, with intentionally small enrollment and a schedule designed around local school-day testing.
Complete schedule, pricing, and registration details are coming soon.
More than weekly instruction.

Strengthen Skills
Practice Under Realistic Conditions
Diagnostic assessment helps us understand where students are beginning and what deserves attention during the course.
Students review relevant academic content while developing strategies for navigating their specific exam.
Mock testing and Simulation Day help students experience the pacing, stamina, tools, and environment of the actual test.
Understand the Results
Personalized score summaries help families understand student performance, progress, and areas for continued focus.
Learn in a Genuinely Small Group
Enrollment is intentionally limited so students can ask questions, participate, and receive meaningful instructor feedback.
>>
Small group doesn't mean anonymous.
Our classes may follow a shared schedule and curriculum, but students are more than a seat in the room. Intentionally small enrollment, assessment results, and personalized score feedback help us understand how individual students are progressing within the group.
Students benefit from the momentum of learning alongside peers while still having opportunities to ask questions, receive feedback, and better understand their own strengths and areas for growth.
