ZCHS freshmen, sophomores, and juniors took the Preliminary SAT (PSAT) last Wednesday. This gave the students an opportunity to practice for the SAT college admission exam. In addition, this provided juniors the opportunity to qualify for National Merit Scholarships. The primary purpose of the PSAT is to provide exposure to the format and questions on the SAT. They also gain information about college readiness, identify how they scored compared with others for college admission purposes , and receive information from colleges based on their results.
ZCHS students from chemistry classes celebrated Mole Day by creating videos, displays, and treats related to this holiday. Mole Day is celebrated each year on October 23rd to commemorate Avogadro’s Number. This event is celebrated in classrooms across the nation to foster an interest in chemistry.
