| RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Education approve a Service Agreement with CollegeBoard in the amount of $143,026 to provide 2,420 PSAT exams for all 10th graders and 2,452 SAT exams for all 11th graders during the 2018-19 school year.
Budget Source: Restricted General [Fund 061]
|
| CollegeBoard provides PSAT and SAT exams to students to prepare them for a successful transition to college. SJUSD will pay for all 10th graders to take the PSAT and for all 11th graders to take a SAT exam during the 2018-19 school year.
The EPP supports students in the college-going process at an earlier age while there is still time to inform instruction and learning, and increases students' readiness for college expectations. The PSAT/NMSQT program exposes students to college planning and preparation tools to get and keep them actively involved in the process. CollegeBoard supports this initiative by providing districts with access to additional savings and associated deliverables when districts pay to engage at least one entire grade of sophomore students. Shifting this financial obligation from the student to the district provides greater access for pre-junior students to the PSAT/NMSQT and initiates students' earlier entry on the road to college.
This fee includes: test materials, score reports for students, school and district reports (including AP potential), and data disks for use with SJUSD's data warehouse. Unused test fees will be waived.
