For the 2022-2023 school year, the TACHS exam will be administered online and must be taken at home. On the TACHS website link that we included above, there is a “Handbook” section outlining all of the information needed to apply to Catholic High Schools. Mr. Flaxman will be assisting students who are applying to Catholic High Schools by obtaining their transcripts, paper applications, report card and letters of recommendation to send to the schools. Please bring back your TACHS applicant record to Mr. Flaxman by October 31st .

​

***STUDENTS*** Please provide the teachers and staff ample time to write your letters of recommendation. Do not wait until the last minute to ask the staff as we do not want to submit applications late. For Families Requesting Extended Time for the TACHS Exam: Any student who needs extended time through an IEP or 504, October 7th , 2022 will be the deadline to send in the supporting documentation to the Diocese. This form is not to be submitted to the TACHS exam office. It will be returned if it is sent to the tachs office. Instead, they can request documentation from us (IEP or 504) and we will help them send it preferably to complete this form before October 7th and send it to us so that Ms. DePoalo can sign it and we can send it in.
