1/11 Robotics Robotics for teens typically equip kids with math and science skills. It also serves as a motivation for students who want to build a career in engineering and robotics. High schoolers will also engage in complex projects that build their critical thinking and prepare them for college life. Unlike robotics for elementary and middle school , students at the high school will engage in complex coding projects that will test their programming, problem-solving, robotics, and technical skills. Each learning stage is an intentional effort to expose kids to the rudiments of robotics, electronics, and STEM. Cayuga offers 3 HS teams and 4 MS teams.

Report Bullying Now Freedom From Bullying Information Regarding Testing Important Testing Dates PSAT/NMSQT ASVAB PSAT/NMSQT What is the PSAT? The PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test) is a standardized test administered by the College Board and is now digital. It prepares you for the SAT and serves as your entrance exam for the prestigious National Merit Scholarships. PSAT 8/9 The PSAT 8/9 is for 8th and 9th graders and lasts 2 hours and 25 minutes. It covers Reading and Writing (55 min, 42 questions), Writing & Language (30 min, 40 questions), and Math (60 min, 38 questions). Schools can offer this year’s test during several windows from September to April. PSAT 10 The PSAT 10 is for sophomores and is slightly longer at 2 hours and 45 minutes. The Reading section (60 min, 47 questions), Writing & Language (35 min, 44 questions), and Math sections (70 min, 48 questions) are the same as those in the actual PSAT/NMSQT test. The new digital PSAT/NMSQT takes 2 hours and 14 minutes. The test has two sections: Reading and Writing (64 minutes, 54 questions), and Math (70 minutes, 44 questions). The Reading and Writing section is divided into two modules with questions covering four categories: Craft and Structure, Information and Ideas, Standard English Conventions, and Expression of Ideas. Math questions include four areas of content: Algebra, Advanced Math, Problem-Solving and Data Analysis, and Geometry and Trigonometry. Some questions require a calculator, while other questions are better solved without a calculator. The PSAT/NMSQT is the qualifying test for junior students to enter the National Merit Scholarship competition. To win, students must take the PSAT/NMSQT in the fall of Junior year. For 2023, students can take the PSAT/NMSQT on a date (determined by the school) between October 2 and 31. Home-Schooled Student Testing Information Under Texas state law, homeschooled students are allowed the same access to PSAT testing as public school students, and must be charged the same testing fee as district students. According to the Texas Education Code, Section 29.916: Sec. 29.916. HOME-SCHOOLED STUDENT MERIT SCHOLARSHIP AND ADVANCED PLACEMENT TESTING. (a) In this section: (1) "Home-schooled student" means a student who predominantly receives instruction in a general elementary or secondary education program that is provided by the parent, or a person standing in parental authority, in or through the child's home. (2) "PSAT/NMSQT" means the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test sponsored by the College Board and Educational Testing Service and the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. (b) A school district shall permit a home-schooled student entitled under Section 25.001 to attend public school in the district to participate in an administration of the PSAT/NMSQT or a college advanced placement test offered by the district. A school district shall require a home-schooled student to pay the same fee to participate in a test under this subsection that a student enrolled in the district is required to pay.

To find potential colleges or see if the university you’re interested in accepts the Common App, visit the Common App’s website to easily search or filter. ACT/SAT The purpose of the ACT and SAT test is to measure a high school student's readiness for college, and provide colleges with one common data point that can be used to compare all applicants. College admissions officers will review standardized test scores alongside your high school GPA, the classes you took in high school, letters of recommendation from teachers or mentors, extracurricular activities, admissions interviews, and personal essays.
