Junior Families: On Wednesday, April 10, 2024 your junior student took the College Board SAT. The SAT measures the reading, writing and language, and math skills needed for success in many post-high school educational settings and is used for college admission. Scores from the SAT will be released on Thursday, May 2, and can be accessed in one of the following ways:

1. View on the College Board website by logging into the student College Board account.

2. View on the BigFuture School app. If your student provided a mobile number on test day, they should have received a text message with access to the BigFuture School mobile app.

This memo from the College Board outlines how to understand and interpret your scores and includes detailed linked guides.
