6/15- Lane Tech Math Placement Exam (tentative date)
Many incoming Freshmen have taken the Algebra Exit Exam to earn High School Algebra credit and begin in Honors Geometry as a Freshmen. We are expecting scores to be released from that exam on June 8th.
- Students who pass the exam will be programmed into Honors Geometry.
- Students who do not pass the exam, either because they have not taken it or because they did not score high enough to pass, can take the Lane Tech Math Placement Exam at 9 AM on June 15th. This exam will be ‘no calculator’ and last approximately an hour (if the student has a documented legal accommodation that allows for it, they will be given extended time and/or the use of a four-function calculator which we will provide).
A sign up link will be posted here once the date is finalized.
The purpose of our Lane Tech Math Placement Exam is to ensure that Honors Algebra I is the correct placement for our students. Although most students do not place out of Honors Algebra I from the Lane Tech Math Placement Exam, some do each year.
We will reach out to students who were close to passing the Algebra Exit Exam and to students whose High School Admissions Test Math Score was high but they did not take the Algebra Exit Exam once we have AEE results. Any other students programmed for Algebra I are still welcome to take the test, but they will not receive an email when results are available specifically encouraging them to take the test.
