SHSAT Academy
The longest SHSAT prep we offer. Built for the computer adaptive format.
If your child has taken a SHSAT practice test and the score hasn't moved, the issue is usually what was being prepared, not how hard they studied. The SHSAT Academy is built around the KRE framework: knowledge, recognition, and execution. We find exactly where your child is losing points and fix it. 10-15 students, flexing to 20 over the long cycle, covering the full summer and the months leading up to the November test.
