Knower taught me how to organize my life through the chaos of high school – and without Jen I don’t know if I would have graduated as successfully as I did!
— William Clouse, Class of 2021

SAT & ACT Test Prep
KNOW the Test™
Summer is the best time for test prep! Starting now, when school classes are not at the forefront, allows you to focus your energy on test prep. It also builds a window to get accommodations in place for those who qualify for extended time or special testing. Knower has an excellent track record of partnering with Holderness college counselors to support you.
