From Our 8th Grade Teacher, Ms. Eller
Ms. Eller's Favorites
A large part of our senior year at Holy Redeemer is preparing our graduates for high school. The admissions process actually begins in the 7th grade. Each fall our local Catholic high schools visit our school to speak to the 7th and 8th graders. During the spring of the 7th grade year students take a practice High School Placement test. The High School Placement test (HSPT) is given each fall to 8th graders who are applying to a local Catholic high school. Every 8th grade applying to a Catholic high school has opportunities to spend a day at their possible choices. These days give our students a chance to experience a day in high school. Our administration also offers chances for the students to participate in mock interviews so that they are prepared for their admissions interview and visit. We are so proud of how our administration and staff work closely with our students to help them prepare for high school, scholarship opportunities and the world beyond 8th grade.
