As a parent of a 4th grade student I was concerned about making the right choice for my daughter's middle school, and was scared of how she would do on the test to get in. Alice's assistance in making the right choice for Rita was paramount, as her knowledge about the city's school system and her understanding of Rita's particular needs were vital to our decision making process. Choosing between the wide variety of schools in the city, public and private, would have been a different experience without Alice's consultations and test preparation work. When I say that Alice helped Rita get where she is today, I mean that in every way possible.

OUR APPROACH
The SSAT
The Secondary School Admissions Test is a standardized test used by admission officers to assess the abilities of students seeking to enroll in an independent school. There are three main levels of the exam: Elementary Level for application to 4th and 5th grade, Middle Level for application to 6th through 8th grade, and Upper Level for application to 9th through 12th grade.
