HIGH SCHOOL PLACEMENT PREP COURSE
The High School Placement Test Prep Course program will focus entirely on preparing eighth graders for the November 23 and the December 7 placement test in the Archdiocese of Detroit. The program includes one 3-hour session. Students can earn better grades, score higher on the HSPT and potentially earn scholarships. They will be more motivated and confident because they will have the tools to succeed.
The course will be facilitated by Mrs. Zena Samona-Ibrahim ’96. Mrs. Ibrahim taught middle school science at Our Lady of Sorrows school, and has been instructing a prep course for the HSPT for over 19 years.
