SAT School Day

Wabash High School leads the State of Indiana in the percentage of high school seniors who take the SAT.  The reason why we are the state leader is because we are one of a few select high schools in the State of Indiana to offer the SAT to all students at no cost to families.  We offer this program to all students because we are committed to all of our students.

Last fall, all freshman through juniors took the PSAT and all seniors were provided the SAT. Tomorrow, March 1st, all Wabash High School juniors will take the SAT during the school day.  By the time a student graduates from Wabash High School, she will be provided 3 opportunities to take the PSAT and 2 opportunities to take the SAT.  This program ensures that college entrance exams will not be a barrier to any student.  Furthermore, Wabash City Schools' commitment to ensuring every student is college and career ready builds a college going identity in all of our students.  We believe in the infinite worth of all of our students, and our commitment to the SAT School Day program is an example of our vision.

If you have questions about SAT School Day or other college and career programs offered by Wabash City Schools, please contact Wabash High School principal Kyle Wieland at 260-563-4131 or wielandk@apaches.k12.in.us
