Sandwich ultimate frisbee team heading to provincial champs
The Sandwich Secondary ultimate frisbee team is heading to the provincial championships. They begin Thursday in Barrie. 'We're pretty excited. Last year, we got pretty close, but didn't quite make it so we're excited to have a chance this year,' a team member told CTV News London. The Sabres went undefeated this season, finishing 9-0 in the Essex-County league. In the inaugural season of ultimate frisbee last year, Sandwich lost in the final in a six-team league. Ultimate frisbee exploded to include 17 high schools this spring, and the Sandwich players are hoping it continues to grow.

NJ SAT scores drop for 3rd year, but participation remains high
Newly released data from the state indicates that the average SAT score in New Jersey has fallen for the third consecutive year, a trend that coincided with the statewide transition to online SAT testing for the first time during the 2023/2024 academic year. Once a cornerstone of college applications, scores from standardized tests like the SAT are increasingly viewed with less weight by colleges and universities. These institutions are now placing greater emphasis on a comprehensive evaluation of a student's achievements and extracurricular involvement throughout their high school career. Despite this shift, the latest School Performance Reports from the New Jersey Department of Education reveal that nearly 63% of high school seniors in the 2023-2024 academic year, or in prior years, still opted to take the SAT. This figure represents a slight increase compared to the preceding year. During the 2023-2024 school year, New Jersey students achieved an average math SAT score of 519 and an average reading/writing score of 530, resulting in a combined average score of approximately 1,049. This represents a decrease from the previous year's average combined score of 1,058. A perfect score on the SAT is a combined 1600, with 800 being the maximum score for each section. The data consistently shows that students attending magnet schools and specialized public high schools generally attained the highest overall SAT scores. For instance, students at High Technology High School in Monmouth County recorded an impressive average SAT score of 1,512.
