All 11th, 10th, and 9th grade students will report to their Advisory classrooms on SAT Test Day. Juniors will test in their Advisory classrooms, while sophomores and freshman will have school work/resource time from 8:10 AM - 9:38 AM.

The time frame allotted for SAT testing will interfere with the regular dismissal times for juniors in CTE courses. To ensure that students do not feel rushed during testing, DSC transportation will not provide bus service to CTE placements for juniors on SAT Test Day. These students will be marked excused from CTE attendance due to SAT testing

• If CTE juniors have their own transportation, they may leave to attend afternoon CTE classes ONLY after the testing time window in their testing location elapses. Students MAY NOT leave testing early to attend CTE classes
• CTE juniors without alternate means of transportation will report to the library during 7th block after testing has concluded

Juniors in the RISE alternative program will participate in SAT testing at Chesterton High School. Testing juniors will be bused back to RISE at the conclusion of their tests

• RISE students should check in at Door #1 when arriving at CHS; an administrator will direct them to their testing rooms. RISE staff personnel will be on hand at CHS to help proctor the test
