• Project Graduation Information:
Dear Paducah Tilghman Parents and families,
I hope you all are doing well! We are so excited about this year’s Project Graduation. We’ve been working hard all year on making this a night to remember for our Class of 2019! But we can’t do it ourselves. Time is running out and prices are increasing. We need YOUR help.
How can you help? We’re glad you asked:
1. Some Prices have gone up so we are asking if anyone/group/business be willing to sponsor either of these activities?
Bowling at Cardinal Lanes: $800. Includes shoes and lane rental from 1:30-3:00am.
Casino games: $1222.25. This includes the tables, set-up and take down as well as 2 casino workers that will work the tables. Having trained professionals at the tables adds more to the event as they can explain the game and rules. It will also help in keeping the games fair. If we cannot get a sponsor for this we will do away with casino games.
2. Sign up to help that night at the event (I strongly encourage ALL senior parents to be involved in this night. It is a special night to remember for both students and parents).
3. Click on https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0544A8AD2EA1FD0-2018 to volunteer be a part of this event!
4. If you have connections with businesses, please ask for donations or prizes.

Dear Paducah Tilghman Parents and families,
I hope you all are doing well! We are so excited about this year’s Project Graduation. We’ve been working hard all year on making this a night to remember for our Class of 2019! But we can’t do it ourselves. Time is running out and prices are increasing. We need YOUR help.
How can you help? We’re glad you asked:
1. Some Prices have gone up so we are asking if anyone/group/business be willing to sponsor either of these activities?

Who Should Take the PSAT and Why Should I Take It??

The PSAT is a two-hour test given once a year in October. Many students take the PSAT, not only as preparation for the SAT taken in senior year and widely used as a major criterion for college admissions, but also to qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Competition.

As with the SAT, the PSAT has separate math and verbal sections and a third section testing English grammar. Each subject is scored on a scale of 20 to 80 and these scores are combined to create the National Merit Scholarship selection index.

Almost all students take the PSAT during their junior year, but many students take the PSAT when they are sophomores to get the feel of the test. However, it is only the scores from the PSAT taken in your junior year that are considered for the National Merit Scholarship competition.

This scholarship competition awards approximately 8,200 scholarships annually. The selection process starts with the choosing of National Merit Scholarship Semi-Finalists and Commended Scholars. Cutoffs vary from state to state but typically Semi-Finalists score in the top one percent of students in their state and Commended Scholars between the top one to four percent. Most of the approximately 16,000 Semi-Finalists become Finalists, and half of those ultimately receive National Merit Scholarships.

The most common reasons for taking the PSAT/NMSQT are:
• To receive feedback on your strengths and weaknesses on skills necessary for college study. You can then focus your preparation on those areas that could most benefit from additional study or practice.
• To see how your performance on an admissions test might compare with that of others applying to college.
• To enter the competition for scholarships from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (grade 11).
• To help prepare for the SAT. You can become familiar with the kinds of questions and the exact directions you will see on the SAT.
• To receive information from colleges when you check "yes" to Student Search Service.
My College QuickStart
All students who take the PSAT/NMSQT receive access to My College QuickStart - an easy-to-use, online, personalized college and career planning kit. This useful tool incorporates the responses that you provided when you took the test.

Your information is presented in four main parts:

• My Online Score Report - an enhanced score report that allows you to review each test question, your answer, and the correct answer with answer explanations.
• My SAT Study Plan - a customized SAT study plan based on your PSAT/NMSQT test performance, highlighting skills for review and practice.
• My College Matches - a starter list of colleges based on your state and indicated choice of major.
• My Major and Career Matches - major and career matches that are compatible with your general interests and personality type.
My College QuickStart is available using the access code printed on your score report, and it can be utilized throughout high school. Score reports are distributed by your school after December.

For information on the PSAT and the National Merit Scholarship Competition consult your high school guidance counselor. For additional information about the PSAT, as well as the SAT, visitwww.collegeboard.com.

Who Should Take the PSAT and Why Should I Take It??

The PSAT is a two-hour test given once a year in October. Many students take the PSAT, not only as preparation for the SAT taken in senior year and widely used as a major criterion for college admissions, but also to qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Competition.

As with the SAT, the PSAT has separate math and verbal sections and a third section testing English grammar. Each subject is scored on a scale of 20 to 80 and these scores are combined to create the National Merit Scholarship selection index.

Almost all students take the PSAT during their junior year, but many students take the PSAT when they are sophomores to get the feel of the test. However, it is only the scores from the PSAT taken in your junior year that are considered for the National Merit Scholarship competition.

This scholarship competition awards approximately 8,200 scholarships annually. The selection process starts with the choosing of National Merit Scholarship Semi-Finalists and Commended Scholars. Cutoffs vary from state to state but typically Semi-Finalists score in the top one percent of students in their state and Commended Scholars between the top one to four percent. Most of the approximately 16,000 Semi-Finalists become Finalists, and half of those ultimately receive National Merit Scholarships.

The most common reasons for taking the PSAT/NMSQT are:
• To receive feedback on your strengths and weaknesses on skills necessary for college study. You can then focus your preparation on those areas that could most benefit from additional study or practice.
• To see how your performance on an admissions test might compare with that of others applying to college.
• To enter the competition for scholarships from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation (grade 11).
• To help prepare for the SAT. You can become familiar with the kinds of questions and the exact directions you will see on the SAT.
• To receive information from colleges when you check "yes" to Student Search Service.
My College QuickStart
All students who take the PSAT/NMSQT receive access to My College QuickStart - an easy-to-use, online, personalized college and career planning kit. This useful tool incorporates the responses that you provided when you took the test.

Your information is presented in four main parts:

• My Online Score Report - an enhanced score report that allows you to review each test question, your answer, and the correct answer with answer explanations.
• My SAT Study Plan - a customized SAT study plan based on your PSAT/NMSQT test performance, highlighting skills for review and practice.
• My College Matches - a starter list of colleges based on your state and indicated choice of major.
• My Major and Career Matches - major and career matches that are compatible with your general interests and personality type.
My College QuickStart is available using the access code printed on your score report, and it can be utilized throughout high school. Score reports are distributed by your school after December.
