❑ Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, along with the Archdiocese of New York and the Diocese of Brooklyn/Queens, does not encourage or endorse programs that coach students for the TACHS. The TACHS is a highly secure exam; therefore, programs that claim to have copies of the test are likely to be invalid. In addition, the test results of students who participate in these programs frequently offer distorted profiles of students’ abilities. Students who do well in elementary school can expect to do well on the TACHS. Turn to page 21 of this handbook for more information regarding the content of the test, test-taking tips, and sample test questions.

1734920_TACHS_Student_Hndbk_2018.indd 1 7/12/18 3:36 PM FACTS ABOUT THE TACHS

The Test for Admission into Catholic High Schools (TACHS) will test eighth grade students who are interested in attending a Catholic high school beginning in September 2019. In order to be admitted into Catholic high schools, students must take an admissions examination in November 2018. The results from that examination, along with school records and other information, are then sent to the high school principals to assist them in making admission decisions. Each student’s information will be sent to three high schools of his/her choice. Results also will be sent to the Catholic elementary schools within the Archdiocese of New York or the Diocese of Brooklyn/ Queens.

ACADEMIC SKILLS TESTED The TACHS measures academic achievement in reading, written expression, and mathematics, along with general reasoning skills. The test has been developed with the advice and approval of diocesan representatives.

EXAMINATION FEE A nonrefundable examination fee of $63.00 will include this Student Handbook, test materials, and the reporting of scores to three high schools of a student’s choice. Duplicate registrations may result in a processing fee.

TEST CANDIDATES The TACHS is only for current eighth grade students. Students wishing to apply to a Catholic high school for a grade other than the ninth grade should apply directly to that high school. A student may take the TACHS examination only once.

PARENT/GUARDIAN REPORTS A Home Report will be provided for each student after high school notifications have been mailed in January 2019. For Catholic school students within the Archdiocese of New York or the Diocese of Brooklyn/Queens, the Home Report will be sent to the elementary school for distribution. For public, private, and non-diocesan school students, the Home Report will be sent to the student’s home address. All TACHS test results are final. No reviewing, rescoring, or retesting will be done.

SPECIAL TEST ACCOMMODATIONS FOR STUDENTS The only accommodation allowed will be extended testing time (time and a half). An Eligibility Form and further instructions for students needing extended testing time are located on page 4 of this handbook.

If a student will have difficulty with stairs leading into a test site or with stairs, doorways, or the like within a test site, please contact your diocesan office.

1734920_TACHS_Student_Hndbk_2018.indd 6 7/12/18 3:36 PM CHOOSING YOUR HIGH SCHOOLS

THE SELECTION PROCESS • Once registered for the TACHS, you will have to choose three high schools to which you want to apply. Remember, the testing site has no bearing on your high school choices. • These three high school choices will receive your TACHS scores. • Making choices about which high school to attend is very important, and you should consider your choices carefully. • The high schools’ websites, along with open house information, will be available through www.tachsinfo.com. • Parents/guardians should accompany students to high school open houses and read school literature before selecting three high school choices. • Also discuss your choices with your teacher, guidance counselor, or principal to determine which schools will be the best match for you. • Be realistic in your choices. • Make sure that you are eligible for the schools to which you apply. • Determine daily travel time from your home to school, and be sure that you are willing to travel the distance involved. • Admission and scholarship decisions are the responsibility of the individual high school.

HIGH SCHOOL CODES • When you receive your Admit Card, print the school name and TACHS Code of your first, second, and third high school choices. Bring your completed Admit Card to your test site. • Many high schools have the same name, so be sure to include the unique TACHS High School Code, which can be found in the Open House Information beginning on page 11 of this handbook. • Do not put a school choice down more than once. It does not increase your chances of selection by that high school. • Please note that you must write these same three high school choices onto your answer document on the day of testing. Errors in this transcription will result in the wrong schools receiving your test scores.

1734920_TACHS_Student_Hndbk_2018.indd 20 7/12/18 3:36 PM CONTENT OF THE TACHS EXAMINATION

The Test for Admission into Catholic High Schools contains subtests measuring both achievement and ability. The tests, with brief descriptions, are as follows:

READING In the Reading test, students will be presented with a variety of materials, both informational and literary. The questions will measure students’ ability to answer questions in factual, interpretative, and evaluative comprehension. They may have to answer questions about main idea, author’s purpose, the meaning of a word in context, and other types of comprehension questions.

WRITTEN EXPRESSION This is a test about writing in Standard English. Some of the questions focus on the most appropriate way to express the ideas in a piece of writing. Questions may address organization, sentence structure, clarity, and effective or appropriateness of expression. Other questions ask students to identify the line of text that contains an error.

MATHEMATICS Questions on the Mathematics test are drawn from the areas of number sense and operations, algebraic patterns and connections, data analysis/probability/statistics, geometry, and measurement.

ABILITY This test measures students’ learned reasoning abilities. Although grounded in biological processes, these abilities are developed through in-school and out-of-school experiences. The questions assess students’ abilities to reason with somewhat more novel questions that use spatial and figural content. The questions show how well students use their reasoning skills to solve problems they may or may not have been directly taught.

TIPS ON TAKING THE TEST

PREPARING FOR THE TEST • Skills such as pacing and strategic answering can help you become a better test taker. Pacing. Pacing yourself appropriately on timed tests can improve your chances of success. Every student’s goal is to give correct answers to as many questions as possible within the allotted time, but since there is rarely time for long deliberations, you may need to identify— and temporarily set aside—questions that threaten to use up too much of your time. Answering Strategically. For each question on the test, you should think about the answer choices and decide which one would make the most sense. There may be some questions that you will not know how to answer. Take a little time and try to answer these questions. Begin by evaluating the answer choices provided. In many cases, you can reject one or more answer choices as unlikely. Any remaining choices will, therefore, be the more probable answers. You should look at these answer choices to find the one you think makes the most sense. If none of the answers seems right, it is best to take an educated guess. You will not be penalized for incorrect answers and will get credit only for correct answers. • Sample Test Questions: Be sure to answer the practice questions in this handbook in order to understand the types of questions that will appear on the test.

21

1734920_TACHS_Student_Hndbk_2018.indd 21 7/12/18 3:36 PM BEFORE THE TEST • Make sure you get a full night’s sleep the night before the test. • Be sure to eat breakfast. • Know how far away your test site is and allow plenty of time to get there. • Bring your completed (with HS choice codes) and signed Admit Card. • Bring several No. 2 pencils with erasers. Make sure the pencils are sharp and the erasers are clean. • Don’t bring any notes, books, or scratch paper with you. • Don’t bring a calculator, a watch, a cell phone, or any electronic devices with you. You won’t be allowed to take any of these into the examination room.

DURING THE TEST • During the reading of the directions, make sure to listen carefully. • Make sure you understand the directions in the test booklet before starting the test. • Students are not allowed to write in the test booklet. • Try not to spend too much time on any one question. If you complete a subtest before the time is up, go back to any question that you did not answer. • Answer all questions that you can by looking for the answer choice that makes the most sense. • Mark only one answer for each question. If you need to erase an answer, make sure it is completely erased before marking the new answer. • If you have extra time, go back and check your answers but do not look at any other subtests in the test booklet. Make sure you have marked all answers, that only one answer is filled in for each question, and that you have erased all stray pencil marks.

Directions This is a test of how well you understand what you read. • Read the passage below and then answer the questions. • Four answers are given for each question. You are to choose the answer that you think is better than the others.

Chester Greenwood was just a teenager when he made his mark on the world by inventing Greenwood’s Champion Ear Protectors. We know his invention better by its less formal name—earmuffs. Chester grew up in Maine, a state known for its bitter winters. As a youngster, he suffered more than once from frostbitten ears. Wool scarves made his injured ears itch, so he decided to make a covering of fur. He cut out furry patches that would cover the ear and asked his grandmother to sew them over wire frames. After experimenting with several designs, Chester found a way to attach these furry pads to a springy metal band, which fit snugly over the top of the head. Thus the earmuff was born. In 1877, when Chester was nineteen, he patented his invention. Soon the demand for Greenwood’s Champion Ear Protectors had become so great that a factory was opened, and Chester’s hometown of Farmington became famous as the earmuff capital of the world.

Ability Figure Matrices

1 B (The figures in each matrix follow rules. One rule describes how the figures in every row are related. Another rule describes how the figures in every column are related. Look at the first and second rows. How are the figures in each row related? In this matrix, the rule for every row is to add a triangle to the previous figure, moving in a clockwise direction.

There is a different rule for the columns. Look at the first two columns. The rule is to add a triangle, moving in a counterclockwise direction. Which figure completes the puzzle? Using either the rule for the rows or the rule for the columns, the missing shape is B, a five-sided figure with five triangles.)

2 L (What rule describes how the figures in each row are related? The first figure in each row can be created by combining the second and third figures.

What is the missing figure? The missing figure must be a large square with diagonal stripes. You can get the answer using either the rule that the figures in each row follow or the rule that the figures in each column follow.)

3 A (The arrow shows that the paper is folded down. Since the paper is folded in half, the holes are punched through two layers. That means there will be four holes when the paper is unfolded. The holes are punched near the fold, so all of the holes will be near the center of the paper.)

4 K (The paper is folded in half, creating two layers of paper. Then it is folded in half again, creating four layers. A hole is punched in the paper. When the paper is unfolded there will be four holes.)

Figure Classification

5 A (All figures are ovals.)

6 K (Each figure contains two circles and two parallel lines that are turned up only.)

7 C (All figures are squares with the same diagonal stripes.)

8 J (Each figure is a square that is divided into equal parts.)
