Hannah SAT scores are in.

Hannah’s score from last months SAT test. 1700. (~1150 on the old scale) Pretty good for a Sophomore I would say. But will it be enough to get into SCGSSM? THAT is the question. I think she is in the ballpark.
🙂
Graduating seniors at SCGSSM average a 2000 score… (the highest average for any school in the state, BTW)

Observations.

So, Hannah noticed we technically have all of the animal groups now! Invertebrates (The hermit crab.. I’m pretty sure that qualifies as an invertebrate, no?) , Fishes in the pond, Amphibians in the pond, Reptile, (the new snake! Gotta remember its name.) , Mammal, (Gigi), and birds, (chickens!).

That’s all of them!

Interesting.

On another note, Hannah took the PSAT today. She said there were only 2 questions she left blank. Here is an interesting thing.. They make you write some kind of pledge…  in cursive!  It has to be written in cursive, otherwise you don’t get credit. Good thing Hannah learned cursive early on. I hear a lot of schools don’t teach it any more.

On another note, she will be taking the SAT in November, and the ACT in December.

Hannah and the SAT.

Had to fill in a form to sign Hannah up for the SAT. One of the questions was “class rank”.

I said to myself.. eh. probably lower than normal, I know she has a B in one of her classes. But I called the counselor anyway.

10/120

It’s a testement to the classes she chose really. I’m not going to complain about a B in one of those classes.. Good Job Hannah.

Funny thing is, she is her own critic.. She knows she could do better. She is a little slack on doing her homework in a timely manner…

Hannah Took the SAT

<parental boasting>She was invited to take the SAT because of some scores she received on some standardised testing she did in school in the fall.
She took it in January, and we just got the score back: 1360. (out of 2400) Not bad. Actually, its close to an average score (40th percentile) for a “college bound high school senior”. (~970 out of 1600 for those of you that took it before 2006) Pretty good for a 7th grader. Way to go Hannah! That’s my girl.
And, I dont want to forget Melinda. She has been kicking butt and taking names too. She said to me “Dad, I got 100’s in all my classes except one on the midterm report.” As she waits for me to ask her about the one that she didnt get 100 on.. “Oh, that one.. I got 102!”
She takes a test on monday to see if she can get into the GT program. I sure hope she makes it.. She wanted to match her big sister so bad..

Smart aleck.

And Rockwell? He is doing fine. He would do great if he did his classwork! However, it appears he is all of a sudden truely interested in reading. He would read before, but it was not a priority. Now, it seems like it is.. I pray it is! Reading is VERY IMPORTANT.
