The
SAT preparation company Appleton Learning recently awarded 15 test prep
scholarships to students enrolled in the Spring Branch ISD Collegiate Challenge
program.
The
company-issued scholarships were awarded to students who prepared for the
recent SAT test administration on May 4.
The
scholarships were awarded to Collegiate Challenge students who are enrolled at
Spring Woods, Stratford and Northbrook high schools, as well as Westchester
Academy for International Studies, a district public charter secondary school.
As
scholarship recipients, students attended a five-week traditional SAT course,
found out what learning style was best for them, took two practice tests and
had one-on-one strategy sessions with an Appleton instructor.
In
a company press release, SBISD Community Relations Officer Linda Buchman
reported that the district’s Collegiate Challenge program helps juniors and
seniors prepare for college and future careers. So far, this year’s seniors
have been offered more than $3.4 million in scholarship offers.
“Since
2000, our program has impacted more than 750 students, and our continued growth
couldn’t occur without community partners like Appleton Learning,” states
Buchman.
Appleton
Learning is located at 1395 South Voss Road. For more information, go to the
company’s website at www.AppletonLearning.com,

I just took my SATs a few months ago and I did terribly! I've never been the best test taker and I feel like I was totally unprepared for the timed portions. My parents are getting me a SAT tutor in the Bay Area, but I don't think that it's going to help with my test anxiety. Do you know of any tips to prepare yourself mentally for taking tests like these?
