Our Placement Test is typically administered on the first or second Saturday after our school returns from the Christmas holiday. All incoming 9th and 10th grade students are expected to take the test for the application process.  You must register for the test, and there is a nonrefundable testing fee.

We use the High School Placement Test-HSPT with Scholastic Testing Service, Inc. It is a test that is used readily across the nation for admission to independent or Catholic high schools.  It is a closed form of testing; therefore, we use a scoring/leasing program with the company.  All testing materials must be returned each year.  This particular test asks questions in two general areas: cognitive skills and basic skills.  There are subcategories within the cognitive skills of verbal and quantitative and subcategories in basic skills of reading, language and mathematics.

Feel free to visit the Scholastic Testing Service website to learn more about the HSPT.
