SAT/ACT Test Preparation Program

Our test preparation course will prepare Saint Joseph High School students for the SAT and ACT tests.  Our course will also help students determine which test is better suited for their strengths.

These classes are only offered to Saint Joseph High School students, hosted on our campus, and taught by our teachers. Students will be familiar with their classmates, surroundings, and instructors. Our teachers know exactly how the daily curriculum at Saint Joseph High School aligns with the SAT and the ACT and how to focus the knowledge base of our students so that test scores are optimized.
