HIGH SCHOOL ACADEMICS

SAT and PSAT PREPARATION
A “no frills” results oriented course organized and taught by teachers of high professional reputation. The focus will be on strategies designed to help students master the complexities of the test and develop skills in identifying distracters (wrong answers) thereby arriving at the correct answer.  In verbal classes, special emphasis will be placed on grammar and writing, including the essay.  Math classes will include higher level math concepts including those found in Algebra II. (For a more detailed course description, contact cdmontgom@aol.com) Register for both Math and Verbal or one class only. (Program Director, Charles D. Montgomery, Ph.D.)
