Dear DVD Families,

Da Vinci is once again offering an SAT/ACT Prep course to its students through PJ Test Prep, a small Test Prep and Tutoring company based in the south bay. They have been in business since 2005 and have been offering SAT/ACT prep with Da Vinci for many years and they do a great job!

The course, open to students from all DV high schools, will be two weeks, from Monday July 29th through Friday, August 9th. 

There will be practice tests from 10:00am-2:10pm on:

  • Monday 7/29
  • Thursday 8/1
  • Thursday 8/8.

The classes will run from 10:00-12:30pm:

  • Tuesday 7/30
  • Wednesday 7/31
  • Friday 8/2

  • Wednesday 8/7
  • Friday 8/9.

Students are expected to attend all 10 days. The course, normally valued at $500, costs only $50 per student! Partial scholarships are available, so please don’t let the cost stop you from signing up!
