Good afternoon Cherry Hill East’s 10th and 11th Grade Families,

On Wednesday, October 14th @ 7:30am, High School East will be hosting the in-person PSAT/NMSQT.

All students who are taking the PSAT/NMSQT will report to school at the regular start time of 7:30 am and busing will be provided for all students at their regular bus stops.
