Dear EOS Junior and Parent(s)/Guardian(s):
On Wednesday, April 5th, EOSHS will administer the SAT to all juniors during a shortened
school day. This test session is the Connecticut SAT School Day administration and serves
as our state mandated student accountability test for grade 11 students. There is no cost to
families and there is no pre-registration required. We are scheduling a shortened school
day (7:25-11:45) that will only include the SAT administration for juniors. Students and
parents should plan for an early release day on April 5th.
Date:
Wednesday, April 5th
Time: 7:25-11:45
Location:
Back gym, LMC, Lecture Hall (determined alphabetically by last name)
Materials to bring:
 Two No.2 pencils with soft erasers; no pens or mechanical pencils
 A calculator that is NOT part of another electronic device. See list for acceptable
calculators: https://sat.collegeboard.org/register/calculator
 A snack and drinks (which must be packed away during testing)
SAT scores are used by the Connecticut State Department of Education (CSDE) for school
and district accountability purposes. The CSDE adheres to all federal and state data privacy
laws and does not release student data to third parties, including colleges or universities.
Parents and students have control over the release of the score to colleges and universities
from the April 5, 2017, Connecticut SAT School Day. If students and parents want an SAT
score from the April 5, 2017, Connecticut SAT School Day exam to be sent to colleges or
universities, they must explicitly request a “score send” from College Board.
1. Following the April 5, 2017, Connecticut SAT School Day exam, students will
receive four free “score sends.”
o The deadline for orders is Friday, April 14, 2017, 11:59 p.m. EST.
2. In order to send scores, students must already have or create a College Board
account at collegeboard.org/mysat and then select each college or university they
want to receive scores.
o Requests for “score sends” after the deadline are $12.00 each.
o Additional “score sends” are $12.00 each.
The College Board has a partnership with Khan Academy. This allows students to receive
tutorials based on their PSAT and SAT scores. It is a valuable practice tool and students
who plan to take the SAT at a later date can use the summer months to practice their skills
in preparation. For your convenience, the instructions for creating a College Board and
Khan Academy account that link together have been provided as an attachment.
3. Students who have taken the SAT on multiple occasions (including the Connecticut
SAT School Day exam) have the option of using Score Choice at
https://sat.collegeboard.org/register/sat-score-choice.
o Score Choice allows students and parents to choose which SAT score (by
test date) to send to colleges or universities.
o It is up to students and parents to investigate college or university policies
regarding admission procedures related to SAT scores to determine what
scores are needed.
4. Students and parents can completely remove the April 5, 2017, Connecticut SAT
School Day exam score from the student’s College Board record of SAT scores.
o Students and parents must complete a Request to Cancel Score Form, which
will be distributed on test day. Please fax your signed request to 610-2908978, or send by overnight mail to SAT Program, Score Cancellation, 1425
Lower Ferry Road, Ewing, NJ 08618.
o The deadline to completely remove scores is Friday, April 7, 2017, 11:59
p.m. EST.
o SAT scores from the April 5, 2017, Connecticut SAT School Day exam will
still be used by the CSDE for school and district accountability purposes.
Should you have any questions and/or need more information, you are encouraged to
contact your counselor.
