Please note: There is no school tomorrow, Mon., Oct. 14, Columbus Day News & Announcements Wed., Oct. 16: PSAT Testing, Grades 9-11 Remember to check your NFA Gmail; you should have received your testing room assignment via email last week. If you need help or have questions, see your school counselor. Get a good night's sleep and eat breakfast. There will be snacks during testing. Report on time to begin the first period in your assigned testing room. REMEMBER TO BRING A CALCULATOR, PENCILS, and your STUDENT ID.
