City Smarts x MS51 – Free Diagnostic SHSAT
City Smarts is offering MS51 rising 8th graders a free full-length diagnostic SHSAT. This is the same proctored experience we provide to all City Smarts students: a real testing environment, a complete exam, and immediate results to help your child understand where they stand as they explore study options for the SHSAT.
Please note: Each classroom seats up to 12 students. We are not able to expand capacity at either location. Given the size of the rising 8th grade, participation is not guaranteed.
