CHICOPEE – Pope Francis High School, a faith-based college preparatory school serving grades 9-12 has announced that the placement test for prospective ninth grade students interested in attending the school in September 2017, will be held Saturday, Feb. 4 (snow date: Saturday, Feb. 11).

The test will take place at Pope Francis High School, 134 Springfield St., Chicopee, starting at 8 a.m.

All freshmen interested in attending Pope Francis are required to take the test and are encouraged to register as soon as possible. Students must already have submitted an application for enrollment to register, as the fee is included in the application fee.

“We had a successful first round of placement testing in December following our November open house,” said Ann Rivers, director of admissions. “We’re now in the middle of our admissions cycle for the next academic year, and we’ve had a steady flow of eighth-graders come in to tour our facility and shadow current Pope Francis students. We’re excited to welcome the new applicants for the Class of 2021.”

Pope Francis High School offers transportation to and from the school for students who reside throughout the Pioneer Valley. Prospective families are encouraged to visit the PFHS website (popefrancishigh.org) or contact the school with any questions.
