Yesterday, our students’s first stop on the Gullah Geechee tour in Savannah was First African Baptist Church. Adorned with a rich history of over of pulpit made of gopher wood, hand-made carvings on the oldest pews and a long legacy of educational leadership. Our students easily connected the setting and conflicts of the novel, Nightjohn, to Brother Jamal’s retelling of the struggle for freedom through education.

🙃😁Whenever I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed...like I put too much on my plate..., my favorite motivational quote to refocus my efforts is "No pressure😧; no diamonds.💠" This quote instantly makes me feel like all the hard work will pay off.

This week, SSAT prep📓 has put positive pressure on the students and they will have to believe that their hard work will pay off. 🎓🏫💰

"No pressure😰; No diamonds💠!

What quote keeps you going?

I returned to school after attending a loved one’s funeral… and the babies welcome me back like this. 🥰 I missed them too!

The moment was warm and it made me full. Thank you, for capturing the moment. ❤️

Hey y'all.
While prepping for the SAT is not everybody's favorite activity, it IS necessary for admissions into some colleges. 🏫

So, to do well on the test, some level of prep is necessary. In fact, many families have had their children prepping for the SAT since first grade. 👶🍼🏫Fortunately, it is absolutely possible to earn a competitive SAT score without a decade worth of prep. 😉

However, without preparation, taking this 3 hour test is a waste your time and money; so, plan and prep thoroughly.

The College Board's website is FULL of useful information for the college bound student.

But, did you also know that there are colleges and universities eliminating standardized tests like the ACT or SAT? They are enacting a "test optional" policy. ✍📖📚

But wait... before you get too excited, you must know that "test optional" does not mean "easy entry"; students must still have a STRONG application. The words "test optional" allows the COVID era student to focus on developing other parts of their college application in order to earn their admissions.

The college landscape is ever evolving. And keep it up with it all can have families in a frenzy. 😵‍💫

What do you think about colleges and universities being "test optional"? Do you think standardized tests are necessary for college entry or nah? 🧐🤓
