Dear Brookwood High School Parents,

On March 18, Brookwood will be administering two standardized tests during the school day, 7:20–11:15 a.m.

All students not testing will be in study halls. So, no instructional time will be missed by students participating in these tests. Following testing, we will be running an abbreviated class schedule for periods 4-7.

Passes will be distributed to all students in Guided Study to allow test takers to check out following testing and to allow non-test takers (12^th graders) to check in at 11:15 a.m. after testing has concluded.

If a student is registered for both the SAT and Gwinnett Writes, the student will take the SAT on March 18, and will participate in a make-up administration for Gwinnett Writes.

Following are descriptions and guidelines for the two upcoming tests:

TUESDAY, MARCH 18, 2025
SAT (All 11th Graders)	GWINNETT WRITES ASSESSMENT (All 9th and 10th Grade Language Arts Students)
All 11th graders will be registered automatically. This is a FREE SAT opportunity for 11th graders. No action is required by parents of 11th graders. All 11th graders in attendance will be administered the SAT.  Participating students must be officially classified as an 11th grader based on credit earned.  Brookwood’s contract with the College Board limits our school to testing only 11th graders. Students in other grades who wish to take the SAT should visit the College Board website to register for a Saturday administration.  There will be NO MAKE-UP administration for the SAT on March 18. Students absent, students arriving late, or students who fail to bring their school-issued Chromebook to school will be unable to participate in this FREE SAT opportunity. If these students still wish to take an SAT, they will need to register for a Saturday administration through the College Board website AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE. The SAT does not count as a grade for any class at Brookwood.  It can however be useful for college admission and scholarship purposes. More information about the content of the DIGITAL SAT can be found HERE. Students participating in the SAT should review the SAT School Day Student Guide for additional information regarding procedures and expectations.	Students are registered for Gwinnett Writes based on their current enrollment in a class that counts for 9th or 10th grade Language Arts credit.  The grade level of the student is not used to determine who participates in this assessment. This assessment will count as 5% of the student’s Language Arts grade for the semester.  Absent students will be required to participate in a make-up opportunity for Gwinnett Writes. Students in 9th and 10th Grade Language Arts classes will need to bring their fully charged, school-issued Chromebook to participate in the Gwinnett Writes Assessment. More information about the design of the Gwinnett Writes Assessment can be found HERE. Students will be asked to write an argumentative or expository paper after selecting one of six writing topics.  We encourage you to review these topics with your student by selecting the link below. 9th Grade Writing Topics 10th Grade Writing Topics
