Yes, all new students interested in applying are required to take the corresponding placement exam. For the High School, it is the High School Placement Test (HSPT), and for the Middle School, it is the STAR Assessment. You can register for the placement exam after submitting the admissions application, as part of your checklist items. Some private grade schools offer the HSPT to be taken at their school since many high schools in our area use it. So, you can also check with your grade school to see if the HSPT is offered.
