Episcopal/MasteryPrep Host Testing Boot Camps

Throughout the year, Episcopal teams up with MasteryPrep to hold ACT and SAT boot camps for our Upper School students.  The camps typically are held on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.  In a single session, students review test content and learn pacing and time management, essential test-taking techniques, tips for the most important question types, and effective guessing strategies.  These camps are very popular with Episcopal students, who rate the camps and the instructors with the highest marks.
 
MasteryPrep is a college readiness company that specializes in helping schools improve their students’ standardized test scores. MasteryPrep was founded by Baton Rouge native Craig Gehring.  The company has supported Episcopal by running our boot camps and supplying materials for other test prep programs.
 
Please contact Dr. Alan Newton (newtona@ehsbr.org) for more information about upcoming camps.
