The spring administration of the AHSGE is over!  The scores should be in sometime in April.  Ninth and tenth grade students, it is NEVER too early to start preparing for the AHSGE.  Make sure you use these reviews to prepare!  Set the goal to pass all five parts of the exam the first time you take it!

Parents, encourage your student to read OFTEN.  It does not have to be a long book!  A magazine counts as reading.  Reading is just like anything else; a person only gets better with practice.  If you need some ideas for some high interest books appropriate for teenaged students, please feel free to e-mail me for suggestions.
