This year’s PSAT will be taken by freshmen, sophomores, and juniors this Wednesday, October 17. Students should report to their designated classroom at 8:45 instead of their first period. Room numbers are posted in the commons and are organized by grade level. The PSAT will take up your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd period classes. After the test, students will be released to their 4th period class and will attend 4th-8th period as usual. Teachers advise students to get a good night’s sleep and eat a healthy breakfast so they are energized and ready to go. They should bring No. 2 pencils, highlighters, erasers, calculators, as well as any other approved test-taking materials. Juniors will be eligible for the National Merit Scholarship, but it is recommended that all students prepare by studying the PSAT booklet distributed by their 1st period teacher.

About the Contributor
Claire Peralta, Staff Reporter
Now that she’s a senior, not much has changed besides the dwindling number of days until her graduation. Claire Peralta is still as awkward and unsure of herself as she was freshman year, but about 2 inches taller. Rarely will you see her without a Diet Coke in hand, because of her undying love for Diet Coke, as showcased in her junior year staff bio. Yes, she knows it’s unhealthy, please don’t inform her of how her stomach is slowly becoming radioactive.
She loves odd necklaces, surfing, travelling, and hopes to leave the United States as soon as possible to become the female Rick Steves while learning as many languages as possible. Her favorite color is the absence of color, and has little to no filter. Claire attributes her unique personality to her obsession with James Bond movies and Blink-182 in the 3rd grade. She apologizes in advance if she offends you, she probably didn’t mean to.
