DESCRIPTION:<p>On Thursday\, October 22nd\, eighth grade students at McCull
 ough will be taking the PSAT 8/9. Please keep in mind\, if an eighth-grade
  student checks out during PSAT testing\, the student cannot return and re
 start. Also\, if a student arrives after the start of the test\, they will
  not be able to take the test. No make-up day is provided for the PSAT 8/9
 . If your child is a car rider\, please have them dropped off by 8:50 am. 
 Testing will begin promptly at 9:10. Seventh graders will remain on their 
 normal class schedule.</p><p>The PSAT 8/9 will be administered in a digita
 l format that will provide an overall easier testing experience for studen
 ts. Your child will take the PSAT 8/9 using a device provided to them and 
 scores will be released later this school year.</p><p>Information about th
 e PSAT 8/9: The PSAT8/9 serves as a baseline for understanding students’
  progress as they enter high school. It is an early indicator of college r
 eadiness that is aligned with the SAT\, PSAT/NMSQT\, and PSAT. The scores 
 from the test will be used for students applying to the high school academ
 ies. The PSAT 8/9 will include grade-level appropriate content for eighth 
 and ninth graders that will match the scope and difficulty of work found i
 n the classroom. The test content is aligned with the TEKS. There is no pr
 eparation for this test.</p><p>NOTE: No make-up day is provided for the PS
 AT 8/9.</p><p><span>8th grade homeschooled students who wish to take the P
