NFA is pleased to let you know that for the second year, we will offer the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT) at no charge to all 10th and 11th grade students. The test will be given during the school day at NFA on Wednesday, October 13, 2010.
The PSAT provides students with an excellent opportunity to practice for the SAT, which is one measure used by colleges across the country to make admissions decisions. Also, eleventh graders who perform exceptionally well on the test may have opportunities to earn scholarship money or receive other recognition from the College Board that may help them in their college application process. It is important that 11th graders who took the PSAT last year take it again this October at school. For more information and an enrollment form, please click here.
Class of 2014 -- Grade 9 Pre-School Conferences will be held on August 24, 25 and 26th from 8:30am - 8:00pm. Please call the Cranston House Office at 425 - 5771 to schedule an appointment time.

The NFA English Department is dedicated to maintaining, and improving reading skills for all students. To this end, summer reading is part of an entire, integrated program. There are no limits to where we can go, who we can meet, or what we can learn when we read. Every book is a journey; every journey is a road to enrichment.
