Two teachers held this year’s SAT prep class, Levi Fletcher and Denise Weis, for four two-hour lessons after school.

Class sign ups opened as a first come, first serve basis, with only 40 available spots. Student services registrar Sarah Carstens believes that the 40 person cap is limiting to other students who could utilize the lessons more than others.

“Some people sign up for the class just to get the booklet and not even go to class which is a shame because it’s a $30 class,” Carstens said.

With the 40 person cap, Carstens and Roseville High School counselors had to turn away students asking to sign up on the last day.

English teacher Denise Weis taught the class for the first time this year and found that the students were driven to absorb as much as they could in the class.

“Kids who are signed up for it are ready to work and are ready to put in work to improve their SAT scores,” Weis said. “I’ve been doing a lot of research on SAT prep and looked into the SAT workbook and trying to figure out what is most valuable for the kids.”

Junior Brendan Guttman who signed up for the class sees the class as helpful as it prepares him for the SAT.

“The class is helping me a lot, they put us into groups at first which was interesting, but it has helped,” Guttman said.
