Welcome to Paly! This form is designed to assist the school in placement of your child into a mathematics course commensurate with their foundation. This placement test does NOT track your student into a single course sequence. We have laning at Paly, and students can change lanes as fits their needs and performance. At present, we hope to offer the placement test after school on either Thur, Aug 12th OR Fri, Aug 13th. The precise date and time will be finalized later in summer and posted on the Paly math website.
