<p><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Dear Ninth
Grade Parents,<br />
<br />
</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The College
Counseling Team wanted to share with you the following information regarding
changes being made to the SAT which will impact your ninth grader. In
December of 2013, the College Board announced that revisions to the SAT will be
implemented in the spring of 2016. This past Wednesday, specific details were
released around what these changes will entail. As with previous test
revisions, the PSAT will change first in the fall of 2015, and the SAT will
follow. The new PSAT will serve as a preview for the new SAT</span><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"> </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The revision is
comprehensive, and there's no question that the SAT in 2016 will look
significantly different from the current version. We've summarized key updates
in the chart below; <strong>headlines include the return to a 1600 scale, an
optional essay, and shifts in approach to both vocabulary and math concepts.</strong></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"></span></p>
