Pythagoras Academy introduced a Grade 7 Scholarship Program in 2021-22, and we will continue this program in the 2023-24 school year. To be eligible for the scholarship, students must currently be in Grade 6 and have a middle-level SSAT score. You can register for the SSAT exam on their website: https://www.ssat.org/testing/about-the-test and take the exam at home. The top students chosen will receive a $5,000 to a $10,000 tuition scholarship that will be applied to the tuition fee for the 2023-2024 school term.
