PSAT/NMSQT & SAT School Day Accommodation planning for October 2021
Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is pleased to announce plans to offer the Preliminary SAT (PSAT)/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT) to students in grades 10-11 on October 13, 2021. A PSAT/NMSQT Testing Notification letter is posted online.
For seniors there are tentative plans to offer the SAT School Day on the same day, pending confirmation of division funds. A SAT School Day Testing Notification letter is posted online.
Students with disabilities who have testing accommodations documented in a 504 Plan or an individualized education program (IEP) may be eligible for testing accommodations on the PSAT/NMSQT or SAT. The College Board must approve a formal request for each student. If the student already has College Board accommodations approved from a previous PSAT/NMSQT, PSAT 10, SAT, or AP test, then no further action is needed. Once instated, accommodations remain in place for all College Board testing. The Accommodations Process for College Board Testing webpage provides instructions on how to request College Board testing accommodations, including the required input and consent forms (Enclosures 2-3).
To request new or amended College Board accommodations for the October PSAT/NMSQT or SAT School Day, return the input and consent forms to the school by August 10, 2021. When returning forms, deliver to:
ATTN: Shakita Fox
Falls Church High School
7521 Jaguar Trail
Falls Church, VA 22042
OR Smfox@fcps.edu
If you have questions about College Board testing accommodations for the PSAT/NMSQT or SAT School Day, contact us at 703-207-4000. We will share more specifics about the October 13 testing opportunity at the beginning of the school year.
