Attention all students, especially juniors!

Those of you who will be taking the SAT and/or ACT exams  next year need to be planning ahead now so that you can take the exams and not miss any band events next Fall.  Juniors in particular will need to take their exams at the end of this school year and/or in June – especially if you will be attempting early acceptance to Texas A&M or the University of Texas.

For your convenience we have included the SAT dates on our band calendar for the remainder of this year as well all the SAT dates for the 2019-2020 school year and have noted which days do and do not conflict with band events.  You will see multiple test dates throughout the year with only one or two conflicts.  Per the Band Handbook, the SAT and ACT are not considered excused absences from band events, therefore planning ahead is required by the students in order to be able to take the exams, do well on them, and meet all their band commitments.

The available dates, per the band calendar, for the remainder of this school year are:

  • SAT – May 4 (except Wind Ensemble) and June 1
  • ACT – June 8 and July 13

Please take advantage of these testing dates if you are applying for early acceptance to any university.
